I have the long trumps, so I let partner get away with overbidding with the short trumps. Clear pass. If I had shorter trumps, it would just be a normal pass.
... and I can prove it with my usual, flawless logic.

Pass.

Bidding will push them to a game they may not get to on their own.

Um, if I was going to do something stupid, it would have been last round.

Doing something stupid now is pointless.

For me it was also an obvious, but my partner (a pretty good young player) said I should have supported because he promised either extra strength or extra diamond length.
He had a 7-card D: AKQxxxx
Opps made 4S while we would have played 5Dx-2.

It is my experience that the timing for doing something stupid rarely matters. It is just a matter of degree - whether it is stupid or STUPID!
