It is my opinion that we should not encourage people to ask questions. 
When I bid 4NT, and my partner explains as Blackwood, and then bids 
5Di, most of my opponents will either wait or look at the convention 
cards. I do not want to give the lazy opponents the added benefit that 
when they ask "how many aces", I should have to tell them "actually, 
we are having a misunderstanding".
