Shouldn't the 4♠ bid show more than the 2♠ bid did?

The 4♠ definitely should have more than a 2 ♠ raise- which that hand so marginally has.

It looks like 3♠ invite should be accepted with upper range of the initial raise - like 8-10TP.

It could be corrected. GIB should differentiate the meaning of the call and respectively partner when the invite is accepted.

I think this is one of those cases where GIB can't describe "A or B". The raise could be 6+ with extra length, or 8-10 with only 3 cards. When combining this, it ends up describing the minimum of each attribute.
