Whatever it is a uncontested or contested auction,both were easier to bid 3♣ as a final contract if Wolff signoff convention was applied I think.

3♣ at our table was New Minor Forcing. There just are not 9 tricks available.

I suspect that JEC and Versace would have arrived in 3NT if it were not for the opposition bidding.

The 3♣ bid was alerted as a relay to diamonds, was this perhaps intended as the start of a signoff and not NMF?

I don't understand the alert as a "relay to 3D." We do not play that. It should be NMF.Note the 3♥ response.
