GTO isn't necessarily all about defensive/unexploitable play. GTO is the natural endpoint of two perfect players adjusting to one another ad infinitum. So they are each exploiting each other to the maximum extent, in a way.
yeah this is a good post again.
The way I've tried to implement my limited game theory knowledge is mostly in understanding my own range:
In this position, given previous action, my range looks like X; how many value hands do I have here, how much of his range do I extract value from, how much will he call with the weaker parts of his range, how many better hands do I fold out, how often do I need to call given he is bluffing XX% of the time.
