No way, *ever*, should robot leave in takeout double of 2D.

This is a prime example of letting the hand analyzer do what is usually the wrong
thing in response to a simple command: "bid your long suit"

GIB, despite any lies, claims, or allegations to the contrary, does NOT PLAY balancing doubles.

It does, according to the description of the bid. It just does not know how to advance in response to it when it happens.
Psych (pron. saik): A gross and deliberate misstatement of honour strength and/or suit length. Expressly permitted under Law 73E but forbidden contrary to that law by Acol club tourneys.

Psyche (pron. sahy-kee): The human soul, spirit or mind (derived, personification thereof, beloved of Eros, Greek myth).
Masterminding (pron. mPosted ImagesPosted ImagetPosted Imager-mPosted ImagendPosted Imageing) tr. v. - Any bid made by bridge player with which partner disagrees.

"Gentlemen, when the barrage lifts." 9th battalion, King's own Yorkshire light infantry,

"I will be with you, whatever". Blair to Bush, precursor to invasion of Iraq

Agree with the OP, but 2DX is the best possible spot for NS double dummy. CA, C to the K and a S switch beats it 2 tricks.
