What it concludes

Bishop to C4 is rarely a good move against the Sicilian Defense because it allows pawn up to E6 and D5 to fight for the center and attack the bishop.
The Dragon Sicilian involves a bishop going to G7 with the pawn up to G6, where white's best response is F3 or Queen to D2 to prepare for long castling and a kingside attack.
Against the Grand Prix Attack and general close Sicilian, an early A6 by black prevents white from committing central pawns and sets up queen side expansion and a bishop on B7.
Trading off bishops and simplifying the game is an effective winning strategy in the Dragon Sicilian when up a piece or material in the endgame.
