And yet, Grattan, there is L20F5. This law explicitely states which
infraction the WBF considers the worst of the two you mention.

[DALB]

Herman, we have explained to you over and over and over again why L20F5 does
not mean what you think it means. Your reliance on L20F5 is based on a
literal reading that gives rise to absurdity (in particular, the
contradiction that a player must explain his partner's bids as meaning one
thing, then bid as if they mean another thing).

The Laws aren't perfect. The Laws are inconsistent. We accept all that. We
have told you what to do about this inconsistency. Now, will you please shut
up?
