My comment was more about the mentality than the language. People are stealing with very wide ranges, so all else being equal, there are a lot of hands you can play against that which will still give you an advantage in the cards you hold. However, not all else is equal, mainly because of position. If you're out of position, you have to tighten up some, and if you're in position, you can often play even more hands and have an advantage.

It's also worth mentioning that if you look at the attempt to steal percentage, that stat's determined by how often you open-raise from the CO/BU/SB.

Best of luck.
