Do you think it is more or less suitble for limited 11-15 openings to play 4SGF or just forcing 1 round?

Do you think 2NT Inbergman/lebensohl/moderateur or whatever the name is right after a reverse?

Opposite my limited (10-17) openings I do not play 4th suit forcing at all, but this is largely because the non-relay responses are limited to weak hands so it is unnecessary. If I played a standard response structure then I would probably play it as game forcing. I do not think the limited openings makes this less suitable than after a wider ranging opening.

After a reverse I like to play transfers and I think this is even better than normal in response to a Precision-style reverse. If transfers were not on the table then my second choice would be Blackout or similar, even though the weakness signal is going to come up a lot more often than with regular reverses. We still need a way of differentiating between part-score and game-going hands after all and we did not get extra bidding space just because we took a couple of points off the range.
