Also, he rates to not have a heart void when he leads the ♥3.

I think 5♦ describes this hand quite well. Pass could work but I think it's a too narrow target.

5D.

And no, I dont regret my double, the only alternative
would be a direct 5D bid instead of the t/o, which even
I would rate as an underbid.

5♦ - I can't stomach a pass here, eventhough it could be the winning call on occasion.
Kind regards,

While 4H could be the best spot, I think that 5D is a bit more likely the best contract. As 5D can easily get us to an excellent slam I think that it is a clear call.
Please note: I am interested in boring, bog standard, 2/1.

Oh wait, it's BAM. That makes pass more attractive but I'd probably still bid 5D.
