There is a time and place for moves like this, and this is not it.  It feels very panicky, like black lost a lot and is desperate to hold on to anything.

What's wrong with moving out solidly?

Black has a winning position here, as white's only real territory is the capture on the right, while black has the capture on the bottom left to offset that and a huge top side.

If white captures the center stones, there are a ton of forcing moves black can get to make it small, and as soon as black gets L14 or so, it's game over.]))
