what do you think? any balance issues against better players? many players, good and bad, will throw money at this line with all sorts of crap, no? we also don't turn our hand face up. Who likes it and who doesn't? Why? When should we use it? Against who and why with how much behind?

I´d be scared of the times I catch TP OOP in a limped multiway with no initiative and the times I´m stupidly stacking off w/ TPTK vs AA/KK/QQ.

Don´t do it, ur hand is underrepped and when u wake up on later streets ur suddenly becomes overrepped, since limp/call is a small/mid pp so often

I'm absolutely fine with it at the right time, and this hand looks like it was the right time.

I would have to say I agree with this. I wouldn't have thought that any edge you gain by being "tricky" outweighs the times you are losing medium sized pots because you never really knew where you stood.
