And we ask police officers, prosecutors, defense lawyers, and citizens to enforce or abide by it? The legislature continues to write unreadable statutes. Gibberish should not be enforced as law."

As usual after preempts, you have to think "Do I have to bid NOW?" In this case pard is probably short in clubs, so no need to rush. However, diamond shortage makes it likely pard will have 33, 42 or 24 in the majors and he might not want to double on that. So it's prolly better to make the major situation clear right now.

So double is pushy, but ok. Would prefer more hcp and better suits to double with this shape, but that's life.
