Default Why Raise with Suited Connectors? (NLHE)

I was just wondering why some people, regardless of position, will raise with suited connectors in No Limit Hold 'Em? In terms of what it does when different types of players are present at the table and how it can be used to your advantage? My friend has also been wanting to know this.

I'll further preface this question with:

The idea of raising preflop with PPs and Premium hands is to induce a 3way pot or a heads up so you improve your hand's probability of winning. But with Suited Connectors, they're usually better when there are more than 3 people in a pot because your EV on it skyrockets. So why do some players like to raise like they have PP, regardless of position, with Suited Connectors?
