I would guess "double". don't you first have to know what 3c is?

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

I like low level doubles as pen only in GF auctions. This is t/o for me.

Systems ON over DBL and 3C interference ( where X! of 3C = Stayman).

My normal agreement is that such doubles are penalties at the 2 level, takeout at the 3 level regardless of whether 1N or 2N was opened.

Then I'll make a tricky takeout double of 3♣.
We have 4♣ available too, if we loathe partner passing.

Pass is not even suggestive of being forcing after a 3-level overcall of our 2NT. Opener will reopen only with very specific hands.
Even if double for Stayman is more frequently useful than double for penalty, I will suffer that loss to send the message -- our opponents don't get risk-free bids.

2NT bidder will reopen with every hand with short ♣ imo

yeap, when it's void or singleton.
