Working backwards by the bot:

|18.k13 was strong, aesthetically appealing, and staring me in the face.

|17.e16 18.e18 19.f18 20.p21 21.k13 22.g19 23.h19 24.i20 25.j20 26.k21 27.t20 28.k14 29.l19 30.f4 31.d6 32.d3 33.c4 34.b4 35.j6 36.j4 37.k4 38.o4 39.j2 40.j8 41.i8 42.n20 43.i14 44.m13 45.n18 46.u20 47.v21 48.h14 49.e12 50.f13 51.d14 52.e11 53.d10 54.d9 55.c8 was less obvious.

|16.m12 17.e16 18.f13 was better for black.

|11.p13 was another try for white, although the bot says black comes out ahead after 12.o18 13.m17 14.n17 15.o16 16.l18 But the bot does not necessarily know everything this early in the game.

|18.k13 19.t11 is how I would have replied to the " strong, aesthetically appealing" move. I don't see a way around that possibility. If 20.o10 then 21.r14 22.s13 23.t13 24.v10 25.v12 26.r7 27.t7 or 26.s7 27.p5 or 26.s5 27.s6. I don't see a viable continuation. As far as 11.p13 goes 12.o18 13.o17 seems to answer it.
