GIB lead at trick 4 (Q clubs) seems manic - there is no combination of cards (such as Jack pinning) which makes this a sensible choice of clubs and has no suit preference value. It has the limited value of forcing dummy to win but a small club would 99% of the time have the same effect.

When is BBO getting a simple lead table for GIB to follow except in rare circumstances?

If the answer is it is too difficult then mark it as another nail in GIB's coffin. If it is easy or moderately easy then just do it please.

There is a bridge joke which goes "not having any is no excuse for not leading partners suit". In a similar vein "a random choice of cards when leading is worse than not leading".

You mean trick 3 but still silly.
