The problem I’m having with this build is nothing to do with counters, or pressure, or rushes. If the terran 9 scouts

No one 9 scouts as Terran... I mean, maybe in Bronze league, but really no decent Terran 9 scouts. No one.

Hahahaha 9 scout!

Much more likely to just 14 CC right back at you. Not that a standard 1 rax expand will be much behind a 16 nexus anyway.

I'll take your macro and raise you some more macro.

No one scouts in bronze, don't be retarded. Maybe gold league 9 scout.

Seriously though, 13 scout is also fast enough on a 2 player map. I started hiding the first pylon hoping that a 13 scout would be tricked into thinking it was a proxy gate, but I still got the expansion blocked once by a 13 scout and maybe 3 times by a 9 scout in 30 games.

who cares if the game is 30+ mins long if you have a 100% chance of winning?

I am intrigued by this guide, but it seems really cheesy to me. It is like saying "well, you'll auto lose to 2 rax proxy Marauder with shells early (Namhcir style), and Geiko style 3 rax all-ins, but you'll have a good chance of winning otherwise because your opening so greedy..."

Thus I don't see how this helps me with the game anymore than any cheesy 1 base build. Your taking huge risks to get ahead, and because you're playing from so far ahead assuming you pull off the opening, you don't learn the matchup or the timings as solidly if you had opened safely.
