What about:
1♦ - 2♣
????
Where your carefully chosen agreements (whatever they are) just collapse... (again assuming standard).

If I have carefully chosen agreements, surely I would know whether they can handle a 1♦ opening on the hand. If they can't, I shouldn't open 1♦.
Anyway, had I somehow bid 1♦ without previous discussion, I would simply bid 2♠.
If partner really interpret
1♦ - 2♣
2♠ - 4♦
6♣
as a splinter; bad luck.
