I'm just wondering what kind of French player plays 3)dxe4 ?? I'm not trying to be rude I'm genuinely curious.. it's... against the spirit of the opening IMO. The article proves why..
Ok apparently Rubenstein French players.... I scoff at this approach personally.
I agree with you that its not a true french if black doesn't fight to close the centre.
It is very clearly a serious system but it seems to be more closely related to the main caro-kann systems.

I still learned from your blog thank you very much for the time and effort put in! Just hurt me as a French player to see that ;D
