Let me add that 1.... a4 is an en passant opening move, but there are en passant opening captures e.g. 1.h2-h4 a7xh3!, 1.g2-g4 b7xg3!, 1.f2-f4 c7xf3! etc. Obviously the most interesting 1.e2-e4 d7xe3! and 1.d2-d4 e7xd3! had been thoroughly analyzed and discarded by the pros and played by only the pitiful patzers who couldn't afford to download the 25 pieces tablebases. In 2019 according to the prevalent notion 1.h3 and 1.a3 were the two playable opening moves, but all this fell into ruin a year later when the 30 pieces tablebases came out. By that time the name of the game was not chess, but nalimov. 'They are playing nalimov' or 'they are playing eugene' (for insiders) or 'onyi igrayut yevgenyiy' (for the more insiders). That's what we know now. Who can see the future? Mihaly with a balanced and deranged mind :)
