I agree with Phil's suggestion, but another possibility would be to differentiate on the basis of strength. If you double with the stronger two-suited variety, sometimes partner can pass.

This sounds similar to what was regarded as Standard 70+ years ago!

This is an impossible hand. This is a 2NT opening to start off with.

sorry I don't open 2n with 5 card majors unless they are really rotten
way too much risk missing game for little reward (my opinion here seems
to be rapidly heading toward the ash heap of history)

I think Rainer nailed it twice in this topic. I couldn't have said better how i see it.

I thought this topic would be over after his first post.....
"Genius has its own limitations, however stupidity has no such boundaries!"
"It's only when a mosquito lands on your testicles that you realize there is always a way to solve problems without using violence!"

"Well to be perfectly honest, in my humble opinion, of course without offending anyone who thinks differently from my point of view, but also by looking into this matter in a different perspective and without being condemning of one's view's and by trying to make it objectified, and by considering each and every one's valid opinion, I honestly believe that I completely forgot what I was going to say."
