And they are wrong - WTP?
 
AG : seems like one can be wrong whatever one does.
 
We were fired by one of Belgium's best players because we took steps to
specify that the principle "we do never open 1D on balanced hands" suffered
one exception : 3352 pattern. He was adamant in stating that such small
specifications were destroying the smoothness of the game.
I wonder what he would have said if we didn't specify that and partner
precisely happened to hold 3352.
