I admit I wouldn't open 1S at these colors, sorry.
and the result can be plotted on a graph.

I like opening light in third seat, but the risk here is too great, imo. The best thing that can happen is partner bids 2 only ♠ and takes up a bit of room or passes and they don't double us. Everything else seems potentially disastrous.

Risk >> reward

Nope. Might risk 2♠ if one of those tens was in the suit.

Might risk 2♠ if one of those suits was in a different hand.

A few weeks ago I opened ♠KQJxx ♥Jxx ♦xx ♣Jxx on the exact same setting. After some competition, CHO doubled their 4♣ part, for down 1 because my ♥J took a trick.
So I definitely wouldn't open the OP hand :)

Pass, the vulnerability is not on our side this time.
