While I agree with Sven about the procedure, it looks to me as though a
L64C adjustment to 4S= might be warranted in some cases. If West
follows suit, South will presumably lead a diamond, and some Wests might
duck. The chance of that is a matter for TD judgement, and we would
need to see the rest of the play just for starters, but if this is
"likely" or "at all probable," the result is obvious. (If L12C3 is
enabled, the TD might assign a weighted score.)
