Yes to sell this hand as 12-14 balanced is such a great describtion of your hand. If you compare it to the big underbid of 2 Spade.... 1 NT? Really?
I guess there are few bids which are worse then 1 NT...
Whoever can read has big advantages. Sorry, 1 NT had been 15-16...

Read the OP, weak no trump specified, 1N rebid specified as 15-16.

"It's only when a mosquito lands on your testicles that you realize there is always a way to solve problems without using violence!"
"Well to be perfectly honest, in my humble opinion, of course without offending anyone who thinks differently from my point of view, but also by looking into this matter in a different perspective and without being condemning of one's view's and by trying to make it objectified, and by considering each and every one's valid opinion, I honestly believe that I completely forgot what I was going to say."

No. It's simple. Don't bid 4H as responder. 3H is forcing, lebensohl-then-3H is invitational. No need to jump to 4H opposite what might be a 3-card suit.

pretty precise, no stiff or void andlong d, no reverse, deny 4s. deny two suited minor hand.
we play a pretty refined version of Baron over this now.
so 3d jump rebid can show a stiff or void.
jump rebids in minors can be very wide ranging.

A lot of people don't play Leb over reverses, particularly in my experience the people who tend to invent suits to reverse into. The only 2 people who might find 2♥ in Norfolk would certainly not play Leb over it. Also isn't 4♥ a 5-5 hand (with enough to play game) if you play this scheme, with Leb/4♥ a bit better (or worse if you agree it the other way round) ?

2N isn't really going to enjoy Jxxxx, KQxx, x, xxx for example, 3♦ isn't going to enjoy Qxxxx, xxx, Ax, xxx where 4♠ and 5♦ aren't bad.
For us, it whould have been easy, with the 1N rebid 15-bad 19 we don't pass this very often, so 1N is clearly best and despite my quack laden Qxxxx, Kxxx, J, J109, we should have been fine in 4♠, but he rebid 3♦ and we weren't (our 3♦ is limited by failure to rebid 2N(GF unbal)-3♣(semi forced)-3♦(one suited ♦), so I was expecting something more like Jx, Axx, AKQxxx, Qx with a diamond suit that will have a decent chance of playing for at most one loser opposite a small singleton and no good spade fit).
playing reverse flannery over a minor suit opening can help a bit with these 5s 4h hands.

Well we don't reverse into less than 4 card suits so don't have this problem, if you do, you can't play 4♠ as kickback.
Also the auction you give, it's pretty rare as 3♣-4♠ can be pretty big so you need to be enormous to double first, but I believe we would play that one as natural anyway.
