Thanks for reporting.

It's fixed in v34. GIB would not extend second suit with insufficient length.

And would be able to pass, even with singleton with minimal hand.

Hope it also be able to pass even with void with minimum hand. Sometimes there's just no likelihood of improving things. Just hope partner's suit is reasonably solid.

Georgi's reply explains a lot about why GIB's bidding has so many glaring weaknesses. He says GIB will pass "EVEN" with a singleton and minimum values. In reality of course those are exactly the holdings make pass a clear-cut choice, not an outlier. If you had a better fit and/or more strength you would raise to game.

Sometimes that's a language issue, not a bridge/programming logic issue.
