I honestly don't know how you can feel this way.
(1) Both hands are suited, and connected.
(2) KT has better equity against the range of hands he is limping (89, 66-TT, K9, JT, etc and so on). If you don't believe me do some pokerstove work.
(3) If villain's are so anxious to call with all of their draws etc, then doesn't it make sense that a hand like KT is going to perform better than T6 in the majority of situations? Not only will you have a stronger TP on average, as well as strong 2 pair, flush hands, which allows you to value bet more streets, but you are also going to find yourself in more situations where when you are double/triple barreling as you say you enjoy doing, that you will have live overcards giving you more equity when called.
