Is this two different systems?

Maybe forums like this (fori?) will help that to happen.

Heh. I used to say indices instead of indexes but I had to stop because too many people laughed at me :)

Both are acceptable. I did have to yell at my graduate students, though, when they thought the singular was "indicee" (spelling unknown, this error only happened orally).

I think the choice of opening 1C or 1D with a 4=4=3=2 hand can well be a "style" thing.

I have a note from Butch Campbell at ACBL which says that this approach (one partner systemically opens 1D, the other 1C, when holding 4=4=3=2) constitutes two different methods and would not be allowed in ACBL.

This is two different systems because you are allowed to play a lot of defenses against the 1 showing 2+ than you would be allowed to if it were 3+.

 

Would I ever complain if a pair used this against me? No. It's a trivial variation, and these people are doing their best to disclose their methods.
