At 15:06 ... you say " ...the computer is saying that the best lead for the defense is actually a trump... " but Hearts is trump and GIB says West can hold Declarer to +2 by leading a Spade. It is not easy to see why this is so, but I think this lead allows East to eventually trump a Spade when Declarer tries to use Spades as transportation before drawing trump.
Another very clear lesson. Thanks again, Tony!
