Default 3 Betting from the button

First - thanks for sharing the work you put into this.

Second - Wow! Are people regularly 3 betting those hands from the button? I understand that the chart is meant as a general guideline / situations vary / it depends on who's doing the raising and who's in the blinds / etc. But still: wow!

Also, I might not be understanding the 3B3 and 3B2 notations correctly -- the Legend sheet says: "3B2 = 3bet lone LAG or CO, call 2 or more". So, I guess 3B3 means 3bet if there are 2 people in the hand already; call if more?

But at the extreme end of the scale, the button is 3-betting:
44/55 (maybe down to 22?)
A4s (maybe only A7s?)
A8
K9s
KQ
QTs
JTs

I'm re-raising many of those hand against an aggressive raiser, but usually tossing the unsuited aces (up to AT/AJ depending on opponents), the low suited aces, most of the suited kings, and the low pocket pairs.

And I'm around 24/21 ($VPIP/PFR) from the button...

Third - hmm looking at the rest of the chart more closely, it's a lot looser and more aggressive than I play (and I think more so than the earlier s/h charts too). Any idea what preflop stats this chart translates into?
