I understand that. Mistakenly, I did not envisage a natural 3NT in this situation so why use 4NT?
3NT leaves room for partner to cue the opponents Major/ other Major, we may have a minor slam?

The subsequent replies make it clear that I do want a natural 3NT bid here, end of brain itch.


You'll win a lot more matchpoints (and events) by not missing obvious 3NT contracts than by finding some ultra thin minor suit slam that may or may not make once a month.

Soliciting a weak 2 bid for cues is not that useful, and your structure over 2M should have some low level way to start an inquiry (like some sort of 2N ask).
