In some cases they do. Isn't it (bizarrely) the case that you can play Drury or Drury-fit only when you are a passed hand?

It is not bizarre at all. Use of Drury by an unpassed hand would be a psychic control.

How do you figure? There are no places where ACBL regulations differentiate the minimum allowable opening bids by seat. So if you agree to open light in all seats, it's not a psyche to do so. And if you are using Drury to avoid getting too high on sub-minimal third seat openers you likely have an illegal agreement on your openings there.
