Adding a small card to that first hand to get to 13, neither of those are 'very light' openings. Especially if you need to be NV or even favourable for them. I'm sorry to say, those might have been light at some point but it's completely normal to open those hands now.

I’m old, lol. And in NA it’s not as common as it is in other parts of the world

That's still a 2♠ opener for many in the US.

@jillybean just to say that it is impossible to send you a PM (probably you need to clean up).

Should be ok now. I’ve neglected any housekeeping of messages. It appears that I must read and delete individual messages.
If I select multiple msgs,there is no delete button.

Not the original hand, the AQJxxx, xx, xxx, Kx proposed as a light 1♠ that was then called not light any more.
