It might seem tame in comparison to other options, but it would place your knight in an excellent spot to cover either "hotspot" currently in progress.
Since gaining the initiative isn't quite in your grasp yet, developping more pieces into the middle area would be an investment in the upcoming sequences.
it is one of the moves that was considred.. No matter how we worked it out, you got a pawn to the back row...
