Default 2NL on UB - effect of mircostacks

I am seeing more and more mircostacks playing 2NL on UB these days. I was wondering how I should be adjusting to these $0.10 stacks. Their range is pretty wide but since I don’t have implied odds I think I can only call with strong pairs and AK, AQ.

Is it a leak or proper play to “race” with them when heads-up?

When other “normal” stacks are involved in the hand I seem to get lost even more since one or 2 of these micros in the hand can artificially inflate the pot. If I have a strong hand I don’t mind playing a side pot but should I tighten up when holding only a medium hand pre-flop when there are micros to act behind me?

Also, any point on reraising to isolate these micros or just except them in the pot and try to play for a side pot? Say I have AA and the UTG mirco pushes, should I reraise to limit cold callers, which hurts my AA, and just be happy to win a small pot?

Last question. Up to what limits do you see these mircostacks? Not talking your run of the mill short stacker, but extreme 5BB micros. Just curious, bankroll won't let me move up yet.

Thanks
