I'm kind of missing the subtlety here

From the files of "Why don't they play that against me?" comes a game from last weekends 4NCL round in England. GM Simon Williams tried an opening system against GM Gawain Jones,  a system which owes an awful lot to the 4 move checkmate. It backfired horribly and Williams was lost after around 12 moves!
