If east has 4 spades then they would have bid 1♠ so there doesn't seem much point to a natural 2♠ bid by west. 3♣ by west would seem better. However over the X pass would seem in order which better describes the minimum values. Even better would be an off shape 1NT opener.
Correction: No X by North
