This is a toughie. We are all so used to the idea of an IBer taking a
bash at the final contract and winning or losing thereby. It always
seemed so fair. However, 27D seems pretty clear about the matter, so I 
will support that  director with you.

As I explained, I disagree with Bob's & Stefanie's interpretation of the 
new L27D1 and L23  Another kind example to clarify. The auction starts
1S 1H
Partner calls the director, refusing to condone the insufficient bid.
The offender substitutes X which the director judges to comply with L27.
The auction quickly ends
1S (_X) _P _P _P
RHO passes for penalties and the result is -4 (-1100), a poor score for 
your side. Should the director allow this result to stand? IMO Yes.
