As a Traxler Counterattack player, i notice you missed almost the "main line". For the good of whoever reads this, here is my analysis of the Traxler. Hope you like it!
Very interesting, much better than just going into the main line of the Fried Liver Attack.
"5.Nxf7 is a mistake, which throws away the best part of an advantage which white can secure after either 5.Bxf7+ or (my personal preference) 5.d4(!)" - IM pfren (September 13, 2017)

As an italian game player, I find the traxler weak. Usually, after Kxf2, white is winning, and 9. hxg3 isn't the best, as it removes the cover on the king. I think just d5 is better than Bc5.

love the traxler, I'm a slow player, always running into time trouble and I cringe at the italian game because it usually means going down to the wire where I run out of time. The traxler pretty much guarantees either a mating attack for black or you lose so much material you're just beat. I play it a lot, here's some minatures I played where my opponents obviously had no idea what to do.
unfortuntaley no examples where the bishop takes d5, losing the queen to Bg4. Not going to annotate these, as the main moves are discussed, just to see ideas for how the game goes. Of course, with correct defense white will win, but the point is correct defense is difficult to find in a rapid/blitz game when black has presented you with a completely different type of game to the one you were expecting.
probably the best example of the difference in development in the two sides. The ending has the queenside bishop, knight and rook on their original squares while blacks remaining pieces are all involved in the attack and mate is unstoppable.

Without engine analysis off of pure instinct i dont think its forced to take on f2
No but after the line
for example, white is totally fine. (I've had this line in a couple of games as white)
6. Kf1 is just bad to me.
by bad I mean worse, slightly
Dunno it just does.
Just my opinion
black to move and draw
Whenever someone plays fried liver attack against there is a crushing counter attack that you can play.
