  1. North rebid shows why many prefer to open 5332 shapes with 1NT. But what was East thinking with 4D, having decided it was not wise to bid 2D?

    1. 2D or 3D at east's first turn are both better than 4D later. Although both a bit of a stretch. Many though do stretch at favourable vulnerability.
