I am going to hold off posting the results for a while since they are going to distract from what looks like a decent debate.

RPM,
I think there is some value to making the Button less likely to 3-bet since if just call you are out of position and most players will out play me here. But also some villains have a pretty wide 3 bet range on the button especially if they see that I fold to 3-bets 70%+, I don't want poeple to 3-bet my AQ raises knowing that if I 4-bet them I have kk+. But i suspect thats not important at the stakes I play.

Lastly, if our villain has a bunch of 67,78,98 suited cards it is true that they have equity but most poeple would fold that to 4-bet and only continue with jj-qq.

Lot's of speculation.
