yes im a limit holdem specialist. i isolation raise limpers all the time with whatever but never expect to take down the pot preflop, but to take down the pot on the flop or turn. the situation is different in stud than holdem because a completion is 3-4 times the initial bringin. its not like limit where they call 20 and call another 20. here they call 5 and have to call another 15. so its a different scenario. the scenario is closer to nl than limit where you can isolation raise a limper for 4xBB on a bluff which is something ill frequently do when im playing nl. however, if you say people rarely ever limp in and fold to a raise i trust you because i have no first hand experience with stud. the only reason why i thought limping in and folding to a raise would be common is because s4ap advises doing this, even with medium pairs! i found this advice to be really strange and mediocre which is why i posted about it here because if its correct to limp with medium pairs and fold to raises, its correct to bluffraise probable medium pairs by people who follow the "correct" advice that the book offers.
