[D] rnbqk2r/ppp2ppp/5n2/3p2B1/1b1P4/2N5/PP2PPPP/R2QKBNR w KQkq - 0 6


the last black move, bb4, is given a ? by fritz book. Consistent with this view,
chesslab has white winning 50% and losing only 9%. My 1 million data base has
white winning 53% and losing only 11% (n = 90). the average strength of people
who play bb4 is 2274 but their average performance is 2144

The engines think the position is fine.

Am i missing something? Why do humans do so badly at a position the engines
think is fine?
