We aren't privy to NS methods. Had East passed then 2♠ might well be Pass/Correct. After East's double, South's suit-bids are more likely to be natural. Presumably, redouble would ask for North's 2nd suit. 2N has more than one likely meaning. Anyway, IMO, with ♥ tolerance, South would be likely to pass, in tempo.
So, we don’t know enough about the methods of NS to give a reasonable opinion.
OT: I’m glad that N is not my partner. An overcall should show values in the suit and also be lead directing, at least that’s what I’ve been taught. At this vulnerability it’s begging for problems.
