I am not sure that the move 16.bxc5 is bad. The game is not forced for white and white can play other moves(for example 21.Kd1 instead of 21.Kd2 I want to see a proof that 16.bxc5 is leading to black's advantage(I mean a tree that the evaluation of the leaves of the tree is at least a clear advantage for black and the evaluation of every position after moves of white that get you out of this tree is also a clear advantage for black) If you cannot practically prove it by a tree then I need to see some more games from the psosition after 16.bxc5 against commercial programs to be convinced that the position after16.bxc5 is probably better for black.
