Of course. For some reason I thought we were bb when I made my post.
Raising is better now, I'm not sure if it's better than calling. I'd guess there's not much in it, raising gives us position and initiative when the BU folds, and there's plenty of draws and 8x hands we can get some value from. But it bloats the pot, and there's a lot of bad turns for us, so calling keeps the pot small and allows us to get away cheaper. Our hand isn't brilliant so I think I'm still calling this flop lead, not raising.
