If 2NT showed game interest (as it would for me, 3C pass/correct) then I would have bid 4C instead of passing.
and the result can be plotted on a graph.

What do you bid with no game interest?

I would have bid 3NT or 4♣ 2nd round. Now I'll shoot 6♣.

4C over 3S for me too. That's your one chance to show extra shape to your partner, and you have a sixth club and a well-placed void. Waiting until after 4N-5S to do anything has screwed the pooch.

It's your partner showing or denying game interest, not you. If you're asked to name your minor, you should do so.
