It is clear that GIB has no idea what to do over jumps in balancing seat.

Well technically you showed 25+ total points when you only have around 19. Still, 7D is just... wtf. At least the West robot led a cashing winner!
Not sure what X of 3S should be by North but if it's thrumpish that looks right on that hand; failing that 4D looks good as you say.

What would a protective X of 3S mean by South? I am not that keen on 4D on these cards, whatever it should mean. 3S makes, so North had better pull it if South doubles 
But I agree that the solution should be some direct action by North over 3S.
South has only 17 TP I think, not 19. GIB does not add shortage points that double up with HCP. As you say, opposite 25 TP it is still hard to justify 7D
