For those who would bid 3NT over 3♥, what is your call if partner pulls to 4♥?

I would have bid 4♠ kickback

That would have allowed you a choice opposite 2 keycards and the Queen, unlike 4NT which is endplayed. Would you bid slam?

Here is what was going on from both points of view. Do you agree with West's bidding?

Looks fine from a standard perspective, but East needs to appreciate that 4♥ is a slam try and hopefully West knows how to continue.

Moving above 3N could be wrong opposite 2236, but I think this can be solved by switching the 3♦ and 3♥ bids.
