Making the bar-point just allows White to do whatever his dice dictates.  Blue should be better off with the double-hit.
This stops White's development at least for a roll and it starts the 3-point.
Blue cannot expect a blitz to work yet, but if things go his way, it could happen.  Blue should try to exploit the weakness of White's "middle-eastern" double-split response.
