I'm curious. Why a RMBNQKNBMR opening setup instead of a RMNBQKBNMR setup? I like having the knights and bishops in the same places that they are relative to the king in FIDE Chess; swapping the bishops and knights like that just seems to make the pawns get in the way of the bishops.

As an aside, another of Greenwood's variant with this piece is Tamer Spiel (a 2002 variant) where it is called the 'Lion'.
