I am not aware of any advantage "opening low" gives to bidding a hand. In the end it takes "X" points to take "Y" tricks. Thanks for the read.

Several advantages were listed in the article. You may not think they are worth whatever benefit you gain from supersound openings (after all, R/S were certainly very successful). But you cannot, after having read the article, say that you are not aware of the upsides.

Of course the "X" points to take "Y" tricks is not deterministic. We have all been on both sides of a double-partscore, -game and -slam swing.

Well no, actually. It typically takes X trumps to be worth bidding at Y level for a given vulnerability. The points in themselves are of lesser importance. A small hint here, you do not necessarily have to be making a contract for it to be worth bidding.

In the end though, if you do not understand the difference in accuracy between opening and overcalling, nor the importance of bidding space, then there is probably little point in having a discussion with you in this field.
