I'm also down, or was, for the 8/5* 13/11 camp, with the same insufficient reason for rejecting 8/5* 22/20. Because Tim's "13/11 cleans up a blot" is nearly all that can be said in favor of 13/11. What else does it do? It avoids a double hit if Opp rolls 5-6 from the bar. Anything else? It strips the 13 point. It makes a point we don't need. We want to play 11/5 covering! Or have a builder for the 7 and 9 point after 6/5 or 8/5 or 13/5 covering. We don't need to block the 5 point; Opp isn't sitting on a 5 point anchor or threatening to advance and slot that point.
