With silent opponents it went:
1S 2D
2N (doesn't show extras) 3C
3N 5C
Pass

How about starting as in Lawrence's 2/1: 1S - 2D; 3NT (bal. 15-17).
Doesn't that clarify the issues for responder? Say, he continues 4C
(natural and forcing). Now what?

Or, suppose 1S - 2D; 2NT shows 15-17 bal. Now responder can continue
with 3C, also natural and forcing.

Aren't these approaches better?
