I even think that 6 spades could be bid if opps were to bid 6 hearts over the one spade bid.
I think I would open the East hand with 2♠. I don't mind the vulnerability so much when preempting. After all, the vulnerability makes it likely that opps will preempt and makes it risky to ballance thereafter.
Maybe I'm just "resulting", it's possible that Mauro is more objective.
