Hello,
After : 1.d4 d5 2.c4 e6 3.Nc3 c5 4.de ed 5.Nf3 Nc6 6.g3 Nf6 7.Bg2 Be7
8.0-0 0-0 9.dc Bc5 10.Bg5 d4 11.Bxf6 Qxf6 both moves (12.Nd5 and
12.Ne4) are logical and have been played by many stronger players.
1) 12.Ne4 have been played by Petrosian, Stefanova (women world ch),
Marshall, ...
2) 12.Nd5 has more practical experiences including Karpov, Kasparov,
Ivanchuk.
---------------
I suppose that not all exchanges are in white favour in this position,
there are many endings where white has a little edge but black can
equalize. To know what pieces exchange and what not ... is high level
strategy.
In that case the black square bishop has no special activity (he now
only defend d4) and the white knight can have (or not) better
prospects. But sometimes that bishop can be very strong later in
conjunction with the other bishop.
question can convert in ... to exchange or not?
If you prefer not to exchange your knight, maybe d5 is a better square
for the kinght. But, as practice shows, both moves have their
supporters.
