Black's KKtP push signalled a KB fianchetto plan to to contest the centre by indirect play.
White rarely develops his King's Knight to KB3(f3) to control the dark centre squares Q4+K5(d4+e5). Inferior to annexing the centre by 2.P-Q4, the position arises more via 1.Kt-KB3 but may yet transpose back into a Pirc. W-Alt.
