Why are you even raising AA in the first place, if the more the merrier is true?

We raise for value and protection. What we lose in protection we gain in value.

Against 5 players, AA is a dog to the entire field.

True, but I don't care about whether I'm a dog, I care about EV. If its more EV to call and try to string the button along, then thats what should be done.

I think there is probably minimal EV difference between pushing and hoping he calls, and calling and pushing the flop. I think the money goes all-in roughly the same either way. So, as I said before, I think both are fine. It just depends on your read of the button.
