Help
I'm going to play in 6C or 7C and start with 4C. I would be slightly disappointed when playing in 6C when I see this dummy, but broadly smiling after seeing the bad break. Would be nice to get to 7C on these hands though.
Where and how? Getting to slam.

Please note: I am interested in boring, bog standard, 2/1.

I believe that 3♠ is a good way how to establish a "strong" hand - so that when partner bids 3NT, your 4♣ will be seen as very strong. (Or, if he bids 4♥, 5♣ will serve the same purpose...
Agree.

Agree.
I've been convinced by the vast majority here that this was the wrong way - 3♠ would be most likely fit-showing strong hand with 4♣ then promising a cue-bid, whereas direct 4♣ is undoubtedly a forcing bid.
