I agree with that part as it puts partner in control. If they overcall 2♠ and pard can't make a bid or penalty double, I'm passing.
There is no right bid over the given auction as partner could have anything.

Yeah, our 2♥ can be a zero count which is why I'd bid again.

The alternative would be 2NT, converting 3♦ to 3♥.
It is possible that my 3♥ call will work out badly (such as when both opps have maximum values for their actions and partner has a misfitting hand), but that's the way it goes.

Yes, some players need to be educated about their ethical obligations. But going berserk and screaming about it does not seem to me a useful way to proceed.

I remember once losing a score because my partner "hesitated", or so said the opps.
What likely happened was:
we were playing online
my partner would not remeber lebensohl if he heard a voice from the burning bush
thing goes 1nt-3sapdes and
he was likely putzing around looking for his lebensohl note
i was mad, but i was mad with him.

If I have to express an opinion about a 3H bid I would rank it fourth, behind pass, double, and 2N (even unusual hoping partner understands a correction of 3D to 3H), though.
