Sometimes GIB is fool for bidding opening responses strictly following 6HCP for such a response bid (of course not always so that it pass out 2NT rebid) - I so many times have to open with 2C on such powerful types of hands.

Not one of GIBs wildest transgressions, compared with some things that it does. I can imagine this being replicated by some humans. Note, change ♦Q to ♦x and game is no worse. Would you then criticise Pass? It is hands like this that gave birth to Precision

GIB needs 6+TP ( not HCP ) to enter 1-1
So here would be absolutely sufficient queen not to be in doubleton suit, but somewhere else. That will make 6+TP.
Unlucky hand indeed.
Almost as unlucky if you were on 4♠ and West had singleton club. Club - club ruff, diamond shift , club for -1.
