I don't know what the explanation should be, but it should be better than the one provided.

Hah. If I made that bid, I would certainly have support, but my hearts would probably be the least "biddable" of my suits, and I would be interested in knowing exactly how "biddable" PARTNER's hearts are.

Of course, you are aware that GIB's definition of "biddable" is "5 cards, or 4 with 4+ HCP or QJTx".

Descriptions of bids should always include at least a general description of the strength of the hand.

Currently that sequence it's not defined for GIB.

Explanation should be "bid 2NT/something else first, you fool"?

It is a shame that there were no bids available between 1♥ and 5♥ to try to find out any useful information about partner's hand. Or maybe you were in a hurry.

i don't like invitation. For me, if u want to gamble, just put 6H. otherwise, just put 2c/2d/2nt/4h.. BTW do u really want GIB to bid 6H with that hand? north doesn't have any first round controls :(
