P      6S     all pass

opening lead C8 result N-S +1430

Before the opening lead W asked about the auction and
was informed by N ONLY that
4D showed a raise to at least 4S with good  trumps
4H showed a H control
4N also showed a H control
5D showed a D control

It subsequently emerged that S thought 4N was RKCB
and that 5D showed 1 or 4 key cards.

If we accept that N's explanations were correct and that
once reminded S said nothing because correct explanations
had been given, is there any grounds for a score adjustment.

If the explanations had been given in accordance with the 
"...normally be given by the partner.." requirement of L20F1,
then Souths misunderstanding would have emerged, and a
red suit lead MAY have been selected.

What are your views?
