Kinda want to play G4, but I'd better slow down a bit.

No matter what, black has two groups that need settling. So white will have sente and will get H17, which I have a hard time calling good.

On the other hand, if Kirby's current plan fails it will be catastrophic, so your sequence might still be better.


Edit:
Also, in your last diagram-- white j3 is pretty hard to deal with. Edit 2: nvm.

We agree on this.

And it looks way too thin to me.
