chino not sure if you play online a lot as well (i know you play live a lot), but for me online(and i'm hoping others, hehe) it's rare that i fold an overpair especially hu in a bigger pot. in my games i see sb making this play a fair bit with the ace of trump plus a pair, or two pair sometimes (which we have odds to draw out on so we have to call), or sometimes as some sort of weird block bet/bluff (albeit this is rare). i do agree that we seem more behind than ahead which is why i don't want to raise, but i think we definitely have to see showdown assuming another spade doesn't fall, and because of pot size.
