I think you overestimate the standard of play down at 2NL dev. The blinds won't be folding a majority of the time in my experience, they call because ''they have already got money in the pot'' so naturally putting in 4x more is fine. This is the stock-standard mentality in my own experience. And also from his position I don't think it's safe to say he'd often buy position, i'd normally expect one or two callers behind here. Putting hero in quite an awkward position.
What site are you playing on? I'm on Full Tilt right now and they're playing SUPER tight. I've been able to steal blinds very easily, although it's usually not cause I'm trying to. I've never been very motivated by $0.03.
