Chess960 Opening
Opening "theory" took hundreds of years to accrue for the traditional setup. But with today's legions of sophisticated grandmasters, all equipped with chess engines that crush the World Chess Champion, we could observe the growth of virgin opening theory in relative real time. It would be facinating. Until we have substantial opening theory accrued for a second start setup, we cannot reliably judge our assumptions that are currently based on only the one traditional body of opening theory. For instance, Reuben Fine said it is unwise to move develop your queen too early. But we are confident that such advice is bad in some chess960 start setups.
