That is not what was said in the original, where it was described that
everybody plays "something".
 
AG : and I repeat that there are pairs playing "something", yet playing 2D
as natural.
 
But yet again, this is not a case that is similar to the one recently
described. By asking, one does not wake up opponents, nor does one
give useful UI to partner - so why should one not ask? 
 
AG : because there is some jurisprudency that, by asking about a non-alerted
call, one transmits the UI that one holds the suit. For example, the ruling
made by an AC at the Bulo tournament (1999 ?), that included HdW and AG.
 
Nor does it provide any more indication than if it had been alerted and
asked?
 
AG : unless there wasn't any reason to alert. Of course, you may have good
reason, looking at your hand, that 2D was artificial, but that's precisely
why you shouldn't ask : you tell partner you have good reason.
Surely you wouldn't have asked if you held a small doubleton diamond.
 
Best regards
