I think too many of us b/i forget that responder cuebid when p opens is good good hand....raise even to 3 level over overcall is weakish.

good good hand? It's 10+ with a fit, although there are hands with less hcp that qualify for it. I guess it depends what people qualify as "good good" :)
... and I can prove it with my usual, flawless logic.

Sigh. I repeat, cuebids after opener overcalls is good, the jump shows bad, not good hand. If sound openings, 10+ HCP is good, repeat good hand. If lite ok, then more. But keep in mind KISS: cuebid good good hand. Basic rules like these win more points than slam.
Please note: I am interested in boring, bog standard, 2/1.
