;B[qm]BL[583.774]LB[qn:A]C[So, this approach is very rarely used these days.  Unless there's a special situation, the 4-4 stone is practically always approached at A.

The reason is that A opens up the corner much much more than the game move.

That said, this direction seems less typical.  I would have expected some sort of chinese formation on the top, or maybe an approach at C6 to set up the kobayashi.]
