Agreed, this thread is strictly concerned with the lines arising after 10...c5. Although I can fully appreciate Gawgaw's desire to move away from these positions, indeed any Scandanavian practitioner would, as playing for two results, i.e. loss or draw is hardly an inspiring task.

As promised the position after 10...c5 11. 0-0 Rxd4 12. Qa4! will be next up on the agenda, unless someone provides something more compelling in the meantime.

Till then God speed.

I would like to extend my sincerest gratitude and thanks to GM Gawain Jones for examining this line in his June update, while incorporating and crediting all the relevant and important analysis contained in this thread.
