Its a nuisance that you have play through the cards when sometimes the contract is solid DD. And a worse pain for those who are playing a speed event. So allow claim the rest of tricks against GIBs and they just autoplay it DD.

Except that many who play in Robot tournaments do not play very well, so they get simple positions wrong. To give them a tool to play DD would be to give them an advantage.

Obviously the criteria for allowing claims has to be more stringent than just "do all DD lines allow declarer to take N tricks?" That's why implementing this is easier said than done.

How about just you claim all the remaining tricks then if the claim is false then you lose all the remaining tricks-playing against 3 GIBs. Sure that's not bridge law but most GIB tournament rules are outside bridge law such as its alerting.
