After thinking about it, I think that calling is a much more complicated decision than moving in. What do you think?

You should consider all the factors you listed when consider a push or a call, so I think the decision to push and the decision to call are similar. In this article and the next, I only consider the opponents range of hands and the stack sizes.

In other words a 3% difference in EV has lead to a 25% difference in stack size. Basically I think you underplay the difference suitedness makes.

I see your point. I agree I have understated the importance of having suited cards. But I still think this only affects borderline decisions. Having suited cards can turn a close decision into a clear push.
