OK, OK, OK....So let's say I've got just 4 outs (which is what I admitted up above). That leaves the pot thin by 4 small bets.

My question is this: How does the fact that my hand is good a non-zero amount of the time here change my calculations? It has to, right? If I raise, some percentage of the time everyone else is going to fold and the bettor is going to be holding nothing more than a flush draw (with 1 or 2 overs).

I agree with the fold now, I'm just trying to come up with a clear and easy to understand way to understand how that little piece of the probability pie helps.
