Law 25 Unintended call or mistake?
See hands below.
W N E S
The bidding went 1H pass 1S 2D
3C pass 4NT pass
5D pass 5S
After clearly removing his pen after the 5 Spades bid he said "oops" I did not mean to bid 5 Spades and called the Director claiming Inadvertency. East claimed he wanted to bid 5 hearts not 5 spades. What should director rule?
East has 16 points, three hearts and five spades. West has one ace.

I would rule that as "unintended" on the basis of the information given.
But I'm not a National director; someone who is might disagree with me
