It seems fine to me, really. I know you ended up playing for 3/5 of your stack and weren't really happy about it, but that seems better to me than playing for your entire stack in this spot.

Yeah, and another way to look at this is that the hand played as if the stacks were 60 BB and you got all the money in with TPTK. Or, even better, if I'm understanding that newfangled book correctly, with a $14 pot and $60 "stacks", you played TPTK as if your SPR were 4.
As far as the whole thing about putting not 1/3 of your money and folding. I haven't read the last couple of chapters yet, but until I see an explanation for that magical number, or think it through and find one myself, I am not blindly following that rule or using it to affect my decisions.
I think what you WERE doing was planning around commitment though, which seems like the right thing to do. If you bloat the pot you face a tough committment decision. You kept the pot small enough to make your decent hand worth the price.
