Chess-Opening Problem: Difference between revisions

There are a limited number of actually viable chess openings. Highly skilled chess players will almost always play the same opening moves, which have specific names. It could be said that starting the chess board from its initial position is a waste of time. The players could just as easily name the opening they will be playing and start from that position.

A possible solution may be to acknowledge all the common arguments and proceed with the assumption everyone is aware of the basics.
