I'll bid 5C, I saw partner's hand.
Please note: I am interested in boring, bog standard, 2/1.

Pass. The 3NT bid can be based on a variety of hand types - strong balanced or a long running suit. A good partner will have taken this into account, so 4H says "I want to play here."
Btw we play 4c as artificial here so resp can find out on what the 3NT bid was based.

Nice convention Ron, but doesn't it take you too high often?

Not really, because responder will always have values and 4NT should not be too high.
4C = tell me more
Now 4D = t/f to H based on long solid suit
4H = as above in S
4S = as above in a m
4N = strong balanced

Mind you it doesn't come up that often.
