♣ suit in opps hand just from memory
I bid 6♥ and went down on a club lead after the ♦K didn't fall
... and I can prove it with my usual, flawless logic.

It's always possible that we have an 8 card suit and LHO has 5, or that partner has bid LHOs suit and we have our own 1 suiter.
It is also possible that LHO opens 2D multi, partner overcalls 2S, and we have a heart 1 suiter. That doesn't mean people play 3H as natural. Catering to 1 in a million type things and not using 5C as a cuebid doesn't make much sense to me.

I'm not at all certain what 5C "should" be here, and certainly not what it would be if introduced in the middle of an auction. I think I'd assume it was natural, on the general "if it might be natural, it's natural" rule.
I'd bid 4NT (initially showing a good 5-red bid) and then 6H, showing a good 6H bid. Although obviously I wouldn't now I've seen all four hands.
