Good Phalanx's results in tactical test suites are often achieved via huge king safety bonuses. And material sacrifices for king safety are always correct in test suites (that's the way how the positions are selected), but not in practical games. Maybe pawngrabber style would be stronger but I prefer high risk of incorrect sacrifice and 'king hunting'. Dusan
