Fluffy, you might hold the world record for writing "2NT GF, what's the problem? <_<"
Please note: I am interested in boring, bog standard, 2/1.

If playing 2/1 then I'd say 2♠ to keep all options open. If not playing 2/1 then I think I would give the opps the least amount of information I can and just bid 4♥.

there is huge gap between 2c and 3h like 2 tricks gap.
you cant be close to both.

That's a known problem with sayc. A problem I personally like to 'fix' opening the 18-20 hand with long strong suit in 2C.

But that's just me.

I prefer opening at one level and rebid 4. If solid then 3nt is often an option. Easy 4h for me when given the hand.

I though the common trteatment in 2/1 was that after 1M-1NT you bid 2m with 15-17 and 2NT with 18-19 isn't this standard?
