question: the rule is that if u have <10bbs, then push, not raise...shouldn't it also be true that if all villians after you have <10bbs, then you should push, not raise, even if u have >10bbs

Yes.

But be careful to accurately gauge the lowering of your folding equity and the widening of the BB's calling range as your opponent's stack becomes much lower than 10BB. I also pay attentiont to what % of my stack the BB's stack represents. I may play weak/tight or give the BB a pass if 2 or all 3 of the folling are true: 1)I have a marginal holding with iffy showdown value, 2)his stack is a sizable % of mine and 3) I feel his calling range is wider (either because his stack is really short or because he has been my batch for the past few rounds.)
