An Interesting Tactic

I have a tactic that I really like. This tactic is very practical. Here's an example: https://lichess.org/analysis/r1bqk2r/pppp1pp1/2n2n1p/2b1p3/2B1P3/2NP1N1P/PPP2PP1/R1BQK2R_b_KQkq_-_0_1?color=white
The exact steps are: 1...O-O 2.g4 d6 3.g5 hxg5 4.Bxg5 Bb4 5.a3 Bxc3+ 6.bxc3 Re8 7.Rg1 Bd7 8.Bh6 g6 9.Rxg6+ Kh7 10.Bxf7 Qe7 11.Ng5+ Kh8 12.Bg7#
Q:What did everyone find out?

A:After the h6 or h3 pawns are available, there must be no king's rook change of position.

Is that a good tactic?
