Regarding the preempt aspect of the whole system (including if you play Deltex within the Delta openings) :
My experience in natural systems with weak 2/3's is that you often preempt your partner instead of the opponent. Even if you use constructive ones in 1st or 2nd. position. I have noticed already a trend for Lucas Two (Muiderberg: 5card Major and a 4+card minor) to upgrade the pointrange to f.e. 10-14, 11-15 instead of the original range of 6-11 points. Or limitations regarding a 3card in the other Major in such an opening or a Multi Colored.
Reason why in REGRESsion I have followed an other style. Because of the Weak Opening System itself (8-12 etc.ranges) on one hand and on the other hand the description of the bids involved and all the possibilities for precision possible in a further procedure òr competitive/obstructive bids by the Relayer. Resulting that 'common' preempts are not used.
| Let's
compare the openings in REGRESsion with common weak-2/3/4's :

In this way
constructive biddings are still possible completely. Exact distribution, if
needed, can be asked for, employ all your tools etc.
But competitive or obstructive possible as well.
Most common will be the 1
- 2
bids of course. If a balanced opening (1
- 2)
you can compete with your own suit immediately too, knowing a doubleton at least
in your partners hand.
All these aspects counter-balance a direct preemptive bid in my opinion.
