It may be because it's 1:00AM, but I would have bid 5♦ with the North hand without even thinking about it. Partner bid 4 diamonds on his own without any encouragement, I have four trumps to an honor. Good enough for me.
Especially all white in IMPs. Ooooh, we lost two IMPs for going down 3 doubled. Scary.
do you x?

Balanced two-count.
Lose 2 is not the worst thing that can happen. Every once in awhile, my opponents do not make the contracts they bid.

If my partner has an actual X-then 4♦ call, and I have 4 diamonds, I don't think they're going down.

I don't understand this. Partner has such a good hand that you think they are making?
