Short stacking - better for FR or 6-max?
Is the Short Stack Stratagy better for 6-max or better for FR?
I'm thinking that you would have more success with it at 6-max since, with less players delt in, there is less of a chance someone else will have Ax or a pair pre-flop, so your all-in with KQ will be good. Thoughts?

i would figure FR so you can see more flops for cheaper and you have a better chance of getting called when you have a monster

true
the blinds are the important thing when u SS so from easy to hard 10h>9h>>6h i dont say its impossible to SS at 6 max tables , but i think its way harder than on 10max tables u will have to change your openraising hands a lot if switching from 10h to 6h tables plus i find it very hard to do proper blinddefense when im SS

Re: Short stacking - better for FR or 6-max?
I think 6-max would be swingier, but if you hit the right set of hands to use, it could be profitable? It seems like a lot of hard work, with huge swings though.
Off the top of my head, probably: UTG - UTG+1: AA-88, AK-AJ CO,Button: 66+,AK-A9, A8s, broadways All strong raises? This is a stab in the dark though from someone who's never played 6-max, so improvements welcome.

I don't think you can shortstack profitably at 6-max.
