Don't know why people want to introduce ♠ at the 3-level. you have a ♥ fit best take the sure fit.
the consensus is 3♠ is forcing, I don't think this hand is good enough to force.
I would give up penalty double for a hand that INV opposite an above avg 2N (you decide just hearts or for unspecified suit)

That "consensus" is certain to change after PS's post...

Partner is roughly 1=5=5=2, but has less than an opening hand. I'll try 4H at IMPs or non-vulnerable. If we're vul at pairs I'd rather defend 3NT or 5C.
