And black just gives white a group to attack.
Because there is a weak group to attack, it will be much more difficult for black to get many points in the center (which black aimed for by playing at A and B).]

(;W[qh]C[This invasion seems unnecessary, because black wouldn't have there many points anyway (if black took the points on the right, white would be able to play the monkey jump at J14 in the endgame, so there wouldn't be many points left for black).
