I loosened up a little preflop, going from 20/17 to 23/20, but I don't feel like it drastically affected my play.

For what it's worth, 20% PFR seems to be that magic number where people suddenly give you no respect at all. It might not have affected your play much, but has it affected your opponents'? Getting called down much more lightly when behind, etc??

If people aren't giving you much respect and you're as aggro as your stats imply then you could be seriously spewing. Also maybe the money does not mean much to you anymore (after $400), leading to further random triple barrels that aren't likely to be +EV, etc..
