Right, thanks.
Sorry I did not make that clear.

I did. They say that it is joseki.
They also say that if White presses at
(E-07), Black takes the stone on C-04. If Black extends to F-06 instead, Black gets pushed around (kikasare).

I don't! The low position of white's corner, and the fact that black is undercut would make me think that influence is less important than normal

Yes, I didn't see it either! Positionally, the bottom doesn't seem bigger than the lower right. But perhaps kivi's idea is that the cut at r4 is bad?

It's because of the o10 group, i think.
Sorry I did not make that clear.
