Is one form "better" than the other? For example, say I want to have $44 worth of tables open, would I be better suited to 4 tabling the $11s or 2 tabling the $22s?

Assuming you can play 4 tables equally as well as you play 2 tables, then 4 tabling the $11s is better. Lower variance and worse players.

Since it is much easier to keep track of 18 other players than it is 36, I would go with less tableat higher buyins. You play much better this way, IMOO

i'm not really sure how it makes sense the other way around. unless maybe you're talking about the difference between $5s and $11s, since the players are equally donky-donk.

Less tables.
The 11s really aren't all that read-dependent. Playing really basically without doing anything fancy will get you a positive ROI. If you can play well at 4-tables, play four.
Like Splashpot said too, more tables = less variance.

if your goal is to make the most $$/hr then most likely you will need to play as many tables as possible.

It depends.
What's better?
Higher hourly rate? Lower variance? Better chance at improving skill?
Even if you were to say hourly rate, it's quite possible that someone could have a higher hourly rate 4 tabling the 11s whereas someone else would find it more profitable to 2-table the 22s.

I agree with this.
Also, why is this situation always stated as an either/or proposition? I don't believe it should be.
More tables and higher buyin is obviously the answer in the long run.
