full distribution asking because for the final bid (= giving the exact distribution) you use for the 14-15 range the normal bid and for the the 16-17 range same bid but 1 level higher. (you can use other bids but for uniformity in endsignal, what will be the suit etc. is above scheme my choise for the moment).
Because if bal. then 18+ against
16-17 so maximum 1 Ace missing
* for the 16-17 pointrange you can jump 1 level higheralready after the first relay, instead of waiting with the last bid, it's up to you. Anyway in this matter same schemes are used for uniformity.

the 16-17 7222 (can be closed then with sides Ace(s) are bid directly after the 2 relay by real bids :4spade/4clubs
but also now no indication poor or good suit (don't forget that it is already 18+ against 16-17, so with slab you will find out)
