even with only bottom pair, the flop is still a bet because villain has two overcards to our pair and we want him to either fold those or make an incorrect call in a pot we have intentionally kept small.

Well that's the point. He's not. Esp. if "we can talk about checking behind the turn ui if it comes to it because we are in position." That's pretty much the worst that can happen and the thing that's most likely to happen: You let him draw to his two cards for 1SB (giving him the correct price, btw) and setting yourself up to potentially pay off 1BB in a-then 3BB pot with no hopes of being best often enough.

If, however, you're routinely betting flop and turn with BP HU, you're spewing. Plain and simple.
