What happened to playing our combo draws fast?

BUT HE COULD HAVE A HIGHER FLUSH DRAW OR A MADE STRAIGHT OR A SET AND THEN YOU'RE NOT IN AS GOOD SHAPE AS YOU THOUGHT YOU WERE IN!
Oops. I don't know what got into me there. Anyway, I raise here, maybe even make the overbet jam. You may take down the biggish pot there, and you're in fine shape against a lot of stuff. If you get called by a better flush draw, you're a little better than a coinflip with a nice overlay. If you get called by a set, you're still getting a nice little overlay to hit a bunch of outs (and not get sucked out on). You may also get stuff that you want gone to fold out, freeing up your outs, etc.
My biggest problem with calling is that if either of your draws hit, you won't get any action except from a better flush, or a better straight, or a straight with which you're chopping. So, yeah, time to gambooooooooooooooool.
