The way I see it in the dutch Stonewall black should try to control e5 with
his minor pieces - exchange Ns and black squared-B. And then hope that his
light-squared B will be better than the white counterpart (Bg2) which is
hemmed in by the black Ps on c6-d5-e6-f5. Now this is of course a very
classical conception. I am aware of the fact that this is not exactly what
black is doing in similar opening-lines - say the Sicilian Svesnikov. However
in the Svesnikov the position his half-open and black can get active play -
often on the K-side. Here activity is a long way off.   Tyomkin: Losing

should even take with his Rf8 since Nd6 is well placed. How can it be that all
these black N-moves has not caused bigger damage to his position? Well there
are a number of possible reasons. a) white used some of his extra-moves in a
not very efficient manner (a2-a3 and h2-h3), b) the position is closed so
black is allowed more than in a open position, c) the very experienced
grandmaster Vlastimil Hort understands this kind of position better than me.
