Perhaps White just assumed this was 1 closer to White's edge, since that would be a standard move from Black and then White's move would be joseki.

Against h8, White should either play i9 or tenuki.

good


If h8,i8 were in the other order, then I would say

d9 is too far away, so h9-for-h8 was a bad exchange for White

I didn't see this move as I initially went through this game, but it now looks very strong to me\:

Black is connected to the 1-edge due to an escape fork at i2, and if Black E8 results in a foldback underneath along the 11-edge, then Black would connect there too, due to the fork b10, threatening c8.]
