I think nearly everyone does not consider this example hand even close to "too strong for a weak 2".
Nearly everyone buys into the concept of that there is no gap between weak 2 openers and 1 openers; that is with a good suit there is no hand that is too strong for 2 but not good enough for 1. You open one or the other. The only time you might pass is with poor suit relative to vul and position, and maybe because holding side 4-cd major
One might choose not to open a weak 2 based on the number of flaws in the hand.
Possible flaws include:
- very bad main suit, low "ODR". Bad main suits are susceptible to large penalties. Especially bad when holding defensive tricks outside which might make it a phantom sac.
- holding side 4 cd major. Preempting may cause you to miss good contract in that major. Also decreases chance opps have game in that major
- unfavorable vulnerability. Higher risk of penalty being more than their game, and getting -200 at MP.
- being in 2nd seat. Less incentive to preempt in 2nd seat because partner might have good hand and less chance opps have game since one already passed.
Most players these days tend to open pretty freely, as they think giving the opponents problems very frequently wins more net points than the occasional self-own when opening flawed preempts, and are willing to shrug off the bad boards. More disciplined preempts, partner can sac more accurately, but you don't disrupt the opponents as often.
