Vulgar style.
Admit it, many of you were thinking seriously about playing Black 1.
Yes, Black 1 has forced White to defend the corner, but now Black has no effective follow up against both the marked White stone and the annoying future possibility of a cut at A.

Correct.
Like the previous variation, Black 1 also threatens to capture the 2 stones. But now Black has the good follow up at 3 against the White stone, which is more important than the extra endgame points that White may now have along the top.
