Default Re: C-betting illogical according to the gap concept?

Would it be okay to think that c-bets set up mistakes in later rounds for your opponents? For example, if you have a high c-betting frequency, and everyone knows it, and you hit hard but bet normal, they're likely to reraise you lighter than if you rarely if ever c-betted, right?

Also, it seems like another reason to c-bet is neither you nor your opponent are likely to hit, so it's like whomever is first in is more likely to take the pot.

I've mostly thought of c-bets, up to this point, as bets you want to make against opponents who have a fold button (not as many of those at lower limits, but that's a good thing). I play in micro limits, so c-bets into stations just don't seem too profitable...but they are when your opponents stick around with you until the later rounds, and they lose their discipline.
