Presumably people presume that 2H is at least semi-natural, thus making a raise to 3H natural-esque as well?

Otherwise I see 3H as some sort of 4th suit bid, which looks good to me as it keeps game in 3 strains alive (3NT, 5C and 5D).

Or am I sounding like Ken Rexford?

Even if 2♥ could be artificial, it also could be natural, and 3♥ should be allowed as a suggestion to play in hearts. Even if you wanted to make an artificial force (which I don't think you should - you have 4-card support and a double fit opposite a distributional hand), you can use 2♠ to mark time.
The easiest way to count losers is to line up the people who talk about loser count, and count them. -Kieran Dyke
