So are about two-thirds of my human partners. I've not had much success reprogramming them either.

Nice response by northGIB. You can take 10 tricks opposite a good weak NT and a bit of luck. Of course you won't get there but at least you'll be in 2M rather than 1m.
... and I can prove it with my usual, flawless logic.

Nobody has said why 1♥ is right.
Remember the most likely handfor south is 12-14 hcp balanced.
Passing 1♣ opposite this hand will be bad.

There is another point that I don't think anyone has yet made. For sure you would rather respond than pass if opener is a minimum balanced hand.
Please let me know about any questions or interest or bug reports about GIB.
