In my opinion it's not a good move, for the bishop will have to move twice to gain nothing |

Th black queen is exposed but menaces g2 and h1. |

It's probably the best move to eliminate the black queen's menace but it weakens white right wing in case of a castle and tend to block the g knight. |

This move seems good to me (white doesn't want black to settle at the center) although the knight had to move twice (Black's developpement is well in advance now) |

Preparing the long castel and menacing Bishop on c4 |

To eliminate the menace on the c4 bishop which I don't want to move, for he is on an open diagonal, aiming at the center. |

This seems a mistake to me, for now white has nothing on the center and the black queen will be well placed on c5, soon supported by a rook. |
