Rainer you are only focusing on our side but bridge is a 4 handed game. When the opponents (who presumably wait until they have real opening hands) are using their defensive bidding methods more than they prefer.

This is a small article from Larry Cohen which I really like. It describes the habit of opening light.


Basically as long as you and your p agree on light openings, meaning an opening versus an opening doesnt nessesarily mean game, it simply pays to open the bidding as much as possible. It puts your opponents on defense, disrupts their constructive bidding and makes defending easier.
