I don,t like the game, but this is not a refutation.
In the most analyzed openings white either keeps the advantage he inherited at the beginning or black barely equalizes. If black is getting a decent advantage then that opening needs to be trashed because it has been refuted.

Any time I see someone who's not particularly high rated try to create their own opening, it generally is and looks quite bad. This is certainly no exception. I'd concentrate on learning about tactics, endings, middlegame strategy, and less on being a pioneer. If you like hypermodern openings, there are plenty of great choices that have proven their worth.

I agree with this.

I'm not so sure about this part. In my experience, people learn a lot about what makes an opening really work by trying to make up their own. And it keeps things fun. My advice to the original poster would be more like "Try it, and see how it works".
