It looks to me that the wrong player bid 3D too. Or maybe I don't
understand the point of doing so, with only four trumps and a strong
balanced hand.
(P.S. My previous answer was based on the incorrect auction in which
South bid diamonds three times. Even so, South sounds like someone
with five diamonds, and my comment that West seems to be bidding too
tamely at this vulnerability to have much distribution still applies
somewhat to a 1=3D5=3D2=3D5 hand, although less so.)

Why not? It looks to me that the toughest defense would be three
rounds of diamonds, using up one of dummy's entries, but declarer
should still have the entries to set up dummy's spades. I haven't
looked at every possible line, but I can't think of a defense to beat
it. Is there one?
