Well probably enough for 3NT but a big problem in (3-4-1-5, 3-3-1-6, 2-4-1-6..)

When I first thought about this, I figured it could be a 14-15 count with 5-4 or 6-4.

This is a waste of a bid. You'd just bid 3N with this.

I like it to be 5 hearts and 6 clubs. Pard can pass with a misfit.

1C 1S
2C 2N
3H

What is 3H?

Forcing, showing 6c & 4h and game (14+) opposite responder's invitation.

Obviously, opener is concerned about 3N. Opener's clubs may be full of holes. If responder is short in clubs, responder should consider playing a 4-3 heart fit. If responder has club length but no honors, responder should consider playing 5C. If responder has a club honor, responder should bid 3N.
