That depends...did I pass 4S really slowly or in tempo?

I agree with 1♠, and I pass now. Partner could have doubled 4NT to show a bit of defence, so I don't think he has much outside spades.

I guess I will be the first person to say 5♠, and I don't really think it is close.

Does your employer know that you spend your working day hunting for typographical errors on an internet discussion forum?
Thanks - I've corrected it now.

X works best by a proverbial mile
LHO was 0166, RHO was 4711
Partner was
Should partner have acted differently?

Yes. He should have doubled 4NT, to show good defence in context.
