This is not a WTP (for me, at least). :)

I have changed my mind, from a 4♠ overcall to X (hoping for Pass), and bidding 4♠ over 4♥.
Not happy to pass, double, bid 4♠ or 4NT :(

I think you should add 4NT (natural) to your poll.
I still double, but 4NT is plausible (as are pass and 4♠).

That's impossible. No one can give more than one hundred percent. By definition that is the most anyone can give.

Double. 4♠ over 4♦, but pass to 4♥.
I think both a direct 4♠ and D+4♠ are too unilateral (but I have to do that over 4♦). Sure, 4♥ could be a 4-3, but let's play. If I bid 4♠ at some point and catch a misfit, it's all over.

Double is the only possible first bid. Next round I will pass 4♥ in a closer call. At least this gets us to 4♠ when it's right sometimes, and 4♥ when it's right always.

Double and pass whatever partner says (except obviously forcing things like cue-bids).
