Normally when I get a zero it is because I did something stupid, but here I think it was unlucky.

My first impression without seeing the spoiler was to bid 6NT protecting the ♠K5. If you are missing two aces, it is 95%+ that you are going down in 6♥ also. I agree that 6♥ may give you a better chance to make the contract but without a 5-card side suit in your own hand which could be ruffed out promoting the 5th card as a trick as long as the opponents cards split 4-2/3-3/4-3, there cannot be many hands imo where you are not collecting 12 tricks.
A ♥ contract against human opps. could see a Lightner X being bid - I do not know if the robots do Lightner X's - and then you would remove to 6NT.
Yes, unlucky to find the 4-0 ♥ split, just 10%

I don't think I would have gone for 6NT unless they doubled.
Even with an 11+ guaranteed, they could still have a minor Q which looks a bigger risk than ♥J 4th.

4NT? - not even sure what it would mean in this auction - if its Blackwood in H that's what I would consider
Looking at the spoiler maybe it ........
but being me there is always a chance I would..... but sadly I have already read the thread
If I have doubts in the heat of the moment I often stop in .... but I have already read the thread
I had a truly bad 0% today due to complete lack of concentration and a brain snap
...in fact on the doing something stupid theme. I had two in the same tourney - the other being a psych that pushed the bot to game - exactly the same number of tricks but 0% - almost worthy of a thread too - sorry it should have been 100% - the stupidity was my defence:(
