you need to define your hand and raise for information (and probably value)...

I can't tell if this is a favorable quote-without-any-new-ideas or an unfavorable one.

If it's unfavorable, I've yet to see any reasons at all that calling is better than raising.

I still think raising the flop is better than calling the flop AINEC.

Why would you want to define your hand?

What range do you think that friberg will put the hero on after a pf reraise and a flop raise? What range do you think friberg will continue with if the hero raises the flop?

You are right by raising the flop we define our hand as AQ+ weighted more heavily toward AA/KK/QQ/JJ/AhKh. Friberg is not an idiot, why do we want him to put us on that range unless we are bluffing to get him off AA/KK (that is assuming that a raise will define our hand like you said)

Are you trying to make this hand easier to play or are you trying to get the maximum value?
