^ I'm not afraid either :)
As I already wrote above.
In my opinion, participating in such a tournament will be even more challenging than in a regular tournament.
Here, you have to play differently than you're used to, and limit yourself to certain rules.
And victory in such a tournament, in my opinion, is even more significant than even in a tournament of the strongest players.
Because here you need to beat an equally strong opponent, but not in your usual way, when the player "charges" ahead, as they say, "on autopilot," i.e., makes moves that have been practiced in dozens of games, but thinks more carefully about each move.
Many like to repeat - "play according to the situation," but all these situations have also been played out many times by experienced players. And, in my opinion, an experienced player no longer encounters any extraordinary situation that they haven't faced before.
But in a tournament with such rules, the element of novelty will always be present for the "pro."
In general, it seems to me that it will be even more difficult to play here than in the usual format.
P.S. Please don't throw tomatoes at me. Everything said above is my deepest IMHO
