To take an example, if all 4 players have equal stacks (ie. 3375) and blinds are 200/400/25, and all players call very tight in this spot (say JJ+, AK) then it is correct for UTG to shove 100%.
However, because stacks are equal, if (say) BB knows that UTG is shoving 100%, it's correct for him to call much wider (SNG Wiz suggests 17%) so UTG can't profitably shove as wide. And so the iteration continues...
To take another example, assume that one player has half the stack of the other three (who are all equal stacked). In this case, if UTG is shoving 100% then it's correct for BB (equal stacked with UTG) to call with only 6.6%
If the short stack has 1/3 the chips of the others then it's correct to call with 3.5%
And so it goes on
