Sorry to start another convention chart thread but...
I was planning to play Polish 2Ms in some mid-chart event when I realized that the ACBL defense database only has defense for 2M=5M4m and 2H=weak both majors, but not for 2H=5H5any (incl. 55Ms). Is that correct that such a convention is actually NOT allowed at mid-chart level?
[please, no rants on the ACBL convention charts, we all hate them (I just broke my own rule) but that's life]

If there ain't a defense, you don't get to use the opening...

I believe that 5M+5any is not allowed at midchart. If you want to make your 2M bids 5M+5m, that is allowed at midchart with the same defense as the 5/4 version.
