Also, he rates to not have a heart void when he leads the ♥3.

We are w/r right? Seems like an easy 2S bid. Sure, Q Jx are not great but I'm still 6-4 with a reasonable suit w/r. Maybe they will hook into me a few times :)

perhaps too strong for a 2 spade opener at this vul, but not in second position. First&third position I'd open 3♠ but for different reasons.

2♠, the Q and Jx are pretty worthless.
