One thing that is great about dropping down to the 25s is that the weaker players tend to define their hands. Hand reading is far easier at small stakes than it is big stakes.

Sure, playing my A game at mid limits includes some fancy plays, perhaps a little bit of moving weak players off their hands, a little bit of representing hands I don't have, other forms of fancy play syndrome. Bring these to a small stakes table and they're probably marginally losing plays. This is probably what Pokey is alluding to. That said, I doubt that these plays make a very large difference in winrate.
