Ben seems to always treat 1NT-4NT as Blackwood instead of quantitative (despite descriptions claiming quantitative). So no way then to avoid ending up in 6NT.

Not sure if this is a Ben issue or a me issue, but I'm having trouble understanding where Ben is coming from on this board Particularly the takeout of 1NTx into 2NT.

I came here to post about the exact same hand. I was speechless to be removed from 1N-X into 2N!

Ben pulled my penalty redouble to a worse contract!
I would like to play 5♣xx with extra trump length but Ben pulled my penalty to 5♦, which ended up down 1 doubled due to bad trump split.
