What are the reasons that make people choose the QID over the QGD? Is it down to whether you prefer hanging pawns or the IQP?

Hi friends! I am trying to learn to play well the complex Nimzo/QI against 1.d4. I think that playing semi slav or King's indian is much more difficult because there are so many forcing lines. Nimzo a...
