I don't think 2nt after 2H limits openers hand. I certainly don't want to give up on a D slam by never showing 4 card support for what will be, very often, a nine card fit.

I don't get why we're "giving up on slam" when all we hold is an average opening NT with over half our values comprised of queens and a jack, no long suits to establish and no shortness. I would suggest at this point it's more about getting to the right game than missing slam.

You don't get giving up, but you are giving up?
What?
