Simply [3+, 4+, 6+; 11-21hcp; strong rebiddable ; biddable ; 12-22 total points] was the explanation GIB gave. 6+4+3=13 so where are the strong rebiddable hearts? Surely GIB knows 3 0 heart fit wont play so well at any level. Isnt GIB supposed to do simulations, how can it get anything but horrid scores from heart contracts?

You need to post the auction and identify the bid that has the nonsense explanation attached so that they can fix it.

When these nonsense bids come up, you don't know what kind of hands GIB is generating, the "strong rebiddable hearts" may be overriding the other constraints, so it might think it has a 5-3/6-3 fit rather than a 3-0 fit thus it passes.

Or maybe GIB holds a 19 card hand.
