Above is Stick's rollout of the original position.
Below are two variants.
In the first, White's pipcount is the same as in the original position (but primier) and you shouldn't hit even though you can do so while keeping your six-prime intact.
In the second, White's pipcount is 3 pips smaller and you shouldn't hit.
