The defense is really suspicious. It is unlikely that competent pairs defend like that. Would it possibly be a "Greek Gift"?
Going along this thought, one possible reason justifying the defense is that the proposed defense might lead to the failure of the defense simply because declarer has no choice but hoping for S Qx, specially offside Qx.
With S Qx, LHO might try to provide enough rope for the declarer. The actual defense gives the declarer with a losing option to take the 'lossing' finesse.
Anyway, this declarer's play highly depends on the opp. Perhaps, this perspective may serve as a widen view and generate a deeper insight to the hand.
Hopefully, this hand can lead to more dicussion of bridge in various perspectives.
