I wonder if someone with BridgeBrowser could try out a simulation along the same lines as the recent investigation into opening 1N with a 5 card major, in order to explore another perpetual argument: The relative merits of opening 1NT with two doubletons?

The main possibilities that interest me are 6322 shape with a 6 card minor, and 5422 shape with a 5 card minor. Of the 5422 shapes I would want to subdivide the results between those which include the possibility of holding 4 Spades and those which exclude that possibility.

For those new to the forum who may have missed it, the previous study (5 card major in 1N) is to be found here:
