Seems to me that open raising a wide range of hands and cbetting a lot is the worst strategy against it. So there are a few better options, imo;
- Open raising big hands only, for easy value
- Open raising wide but continuing on the flop only when you hit. This seems to not be profitable against all but the most extreme callingstations. Maybe reducing the PFR size would help.
- Looking for another way to see flops cheap and being able to decide after seeing 5 out of 7 cards if we want to continue/play a big pot or not.....meaning limping and fitorfold.
I agree the assumption that villain is passive as well is important.

Though, im not exactly sure what you're saying.
The pot-sweetening-bet point was mostly about preflop as well.
- Assuming there are other players at the table that could ruin a fitorfold strategy (or maybe the CS player himself). using small betsizes might prevent them.
- it builds a pot for when you hit (which happens often enough with the hands you should be using this with)
- there's often some FE, even against these players
- assuming these players are usually passive, they aren't exploiting our strategy and call way too often (instead of raising as a bluff/value/protection)
