Good defense by East to hold the contract to 12 tricks. A lesser player might have allowed 13 tricks.

4: Silly me was hoping partner would use RKC, but I should probably have bid 4N (RKC?) myself, hoping for a 5 response.

More solid defense to hold declarer to 12 tricks. It is an underappreciated part of the game that preventing overtricks in small slam contracts is a crucial part of the game.
