Man, it really feels like there is something there. This move seems stupid, and may turn out to be a bad move. But to utilize aji in this area, I want liberties filled on the marked stones:

So basically, I am playing these stones though they will be captured, because I hope to get this:

The stones die, of course, but I want to do this sequence while I think he will respond this way so that I have the option of playing this way:

Namely, because it could be valuable to have the three black stones in the marked position:

But I can't read a sequence where I think these stones will be useful... I still want to play this way, though, because if we play later, MW may respond in a different way locally. He may even do this now, but I don't think that he will.
I sound irrational right now... But I want to play this way, anyway.
