Bidding has gone
P P P 1♠
2♦ 2NT
What nice uses are there for 2NT in this situation?
I assume that if it is passed found to the 1♠ bidder it is very rare that they will pass, so a delayed 2NT bid could show the balanced hand with diamond stop.
Could Leb be played here or would it take away too much for its benafits.

Playing 2NT as artficial, i.e. some kind of lebensohl
certainly makes sense, altough for the given seq.
it does not really matter, since I fail to find hands,
which would want to go through 2NT.
It makes sense for symmetry reasons, since quite often
one plays 2NT as artificial in the seq.
1♠ - (2♦) - 2NT ...

Check out the post on "cue raise" for some ideas -- same concept...
"Gibberish in, gibberish out. A trial judge, three sets of lawyers, and now three appellate judges cannot agree on what this law means. And we ask police officers, prosecutors, defense lawyers, and citizens to enforce or abide by it? The legislature continues to write unreadable statutes. Gibberish should not be enforced as law."

P-P-P-1S-(2D)-2NT if i have the auction right. That's 10-11, maybe a crappy 12, with usually a double diamond stop.
Something like ♠Jx ♥Axx ♦AQx ♣Txxxx.
If you start adding too much artificiality for no reason it will only hurt your bidding. Not to mention the number of disasters you and your partner will have whenever you are in disagreement of what a bid means.
