This particular hand does seem strange, but I did play a lot against those two back in OKBridge days and can't remember anything suspicious.

This is a WTP? auction to me.

First principal of bid vs pass is don't do it unless you expect to make.

Nothing wrong with deciding that pard has wasted club cards on offence and bad splits are lurking. You may well trade a red game for a smaller plus but it's the safe plus and state of the match might have been a factor. Normal tempo for a five level decision is much longer too.

The funny part is partners trump holding but that points to

1. The 4♠ bidder immediately goes for a drug test.
2. Surely that player has a prior reputation for such pre-empts

There was no couching button in OK-bridge so "natural and honest" bidding
