I thought this was supposed to be a good flop...

Regarding the thought of keeping the pot small to maximize villains mistakes - they open (and over) limped. That was their mistake, now we want to 'punish' them by cleverly 'inducing' fractional equity mistakes on the flop? I understand the argument, I just find it hard to imagine a scenario where just completing PF causes someone to make an error big enough post flop to compensate for the equity we sacrificed FROM EACH LIMPER to make it worthwhile.

I can see arguments for not raising if the limpers are tightish/passivish whose open limping ranges have us in bad shape, or something along those lines. But how often does this happen?
