3♠, I don't even see this as being a problem. I guess it's close to 4 but seems not quite there opposite the doubles I see most of us make...

I bid 4♠. It is a game try. Bid game and try to make it.

3♠.

Pard's double of a Precision 1♦ might be a little off-shape, and I'd rather be in 3N with a 4-3 here, especially with a likely source of tricks in clubs. The stiff ♥A is a big negative too.

3♠
That's impossible. No one can give more than one hundred percent. By definition that is the most anyone can give.

I agree with 3♠. If forcing to game, I would bid 4♥ as choice of games with partner who agree on this interpretation.

3♥ was 2 off, 3♠ was already down. But of course 1 hand probes nothing.
