Opening replies: The loose hit on the 3

This was probably discussed here years ago, but I'm a latecomer to the opening theory party, so I didn't notice. Being the donkey that I am, I nearly dropped my beer glass recently in the chouette when I learned (due to W Womack's nice cheat sheet) about 52S 64H. Can someone please explain the idea behind this move, especially in contrast with the quite bad 52S 63X?
