My guess is that donk bets mean different things depending on the level. When I was playing 100NL regularly donk bets were often undersized bets by bad players aimed at stopping continuation bets (or for no reason in particular). When I moved up to 200NL I saw more normal sized donk bets with medium and high strength hands. As I continued to move up players were donking with a wide enough range of made hands that the raise the donk bet default no was no longer profitable.

I might donk this flop with a wide range that I would just call from the SB with, from nothing to the nuts (though I'm probably not just calling with 68 from the SB). If I knew your default play was to raise a donk bet I would be donking with my stronger hands and check-folding, checking-calling, and check-raising everything else.
