Why does the explanation of 3♦ include 4-9 total points? With a yarb, wouldn't North try to sign off in his long suit in exactly the same way?

PS: Nice non-double, West!

And misbid by COHO- he clearly has to reject the Lebensohl transfer as his hand is nonstandard- whether 3♥ direct or 4♣ direct is a matter of opinion and understanding of the "system".
West probably simulated the hand and found 6♣ doubled gets a worse score.
