How To Use The Opening Explorer

So, Lichess is kind of Google for the Chessworld. Even with anonymous accounts, it is difficult to hide you secrets in preparation, style, or weaknesses.
Great tools, anyways!
It is written that ding’s 4.h3 in a game 1
It is supposed to be game 2
How to access the lichess Opening Explorer:
1. Lichess menu TOOLS > Analysis board (or link lichess.org/analysis)
2. Hit book icon at bottom-left of window to the right of analysis board.
I think this is an interesting foundation for a discussion about the importance of openings and what they can tell us about the players. Not in the way "Sicilian is aggressive" or other rumors, but more in the ability aspect. It is also interesting how one can gain advantage through the database...
This all leaves me to wonder about Chess960 and what it in turn says about its player. But I guess if you really wanted to you could get a main line for every 960 position. :(
Anyway, thanks for the blog (I know - ventured a little into the off-topics)!
