Sven, please stop trying to twist things. The message about the HA
*relates* to HCS in Hearts. It is not "other than HCS".
Whether we count the five honour cards or the four "point" cards a
message relating to possession of one (or more) of those cards, either
specifically or "2 of 3" or "3 of 5" or whatever is *within* the
definition of showing HCS.
