No blame. A minimum opener although 4-card support, does not need to bid again opposite a passed hand because game possibilities are very remote. Opener can bid 2S if opponents balance, this is likely a partscore hand. I would have opened 2S as East.

I would raise with West.

2♠ tends to be very preemptive here anyway, and you have a lot of safety when you need to stretch to bid 3♠ over 1 since partner is never bidding on air as a passed hand.

Sometimes you make game, but I'm not sure its 100% for East to bid it over the raise.
