Zbaduk considers these moves and ends up preferring by a small margin, A being on par. The press at B is inferior by 3%. The cut at C by 10% (hence more like a mistake). The interesting points are the shoulder hit at D and the 4 moves on the sector line, which are all on par with the blue move, except for the squared point, inferior by 4%.
However the analysis doesn't seem to hold when digging deeper.
