Imps team matches. (edited)
1Nt is forcing.
When asked if 1S-2S is constructive E say its 4-7, while 1NT followed by 2S is 8-9 with 2 or 3 trumps without competition. With comp they have no agreements.
If you X N can bid 2nt as 2 place to play.

From Psych "I mean, Gus and I never see eye-to-eye on work stuff.
For instance, he doesn't like being used as a human shield when we're being shot at.
I happen to think it's a very noble way to meet one's maker, especially for a guy like him.
Bottom line is we never let that difference of opinion interfere with anything."

If double is available it seems better than 2NT, because it allows partner to leave it in, and it gives us more room if he takes it out. 2NT might get us to 3♣ opposite a 3613 shape, whereas double would always get us to 3♥.
... that would still not be conclusive proof, before someone wants to explain that to me as well as if I was a 5 year-old. - gwnn

would always pass at IMPs, and there is a big chance I would base my reopening decision on how much it took for LHO to bid 2♠ at MPS. 2♠ bids with 3 cards are automatic, with 2 cards require a bit of thought

Forgot but it was Imps against decent opposition.
West bid 2S like it was a no brainer.
