If we're putting ourselves in tricky situations then we will be putting our opponents into just as many, and more vs people who play badly preflop. Since we play better than our opponents this is exactly what we wan to do.

This isn't necessarily true. If we raise ATs from the CO to 3.5BB and the aggressive BTN calls with any sort of drawing hand (and the blinds fold), we are in a very awkward SPR spot and she is in a very good SPR spot. This is further magnified when you hit a flop like T65, with two to a flush. You bet 2/3 pot, get called. Turn is an offsuit 9. Now what?
