South has already shown 5 of his 7 clubs. He has shown 0 of his 4 hearts. He has only shown a four card major. To me it makes sense that 2♦ is a forcing way to find out what the major is (rather then by making a pass or correct bid).
The only possible LA to 3♥ that I can imagine would be 4♥: showing the heart suit and logically implying extra club length. But since I would expect 3♥ to be GF too, I could imagine that you would require a maximum (or a minimum) for this kind of specific jump.

Yeah, 4♥ looks right if it shows extra clubs, I'm not an expert on raptor, but bidding my AK10xxxx again looks very promising as well, partner knows I have 4cM somewhere so can bid p/c 4M if he wants.
