You should tell us what moves you consider constitute the various systems. Mark Hebden plays lines where he will play d4, Nf3, Bf4, Nc3, e3 etc. I'm sure there are players who of necessity have studied the most accurate Black responses, but a broad brush approach is what most defenders would use. In other words they would have a defensive or counter attacking set up in mind without really knowing the precise name of the rather amorphous system they were facing.
