and if i didn't meantion it before, shorthanded means big cards are more valuable

isn't really true, your argument was moreso geared towards deeper stacks. (or even somewhat normal! in the OP's game everyone was rediculously shortstacked)
3handed I prefer 87s on the button to KJo, but I like both.
Obviously, the converse is true if we're playing shallow stacks... But the #of players doesn't neccessitate the power of each hand. (Although one could make the argument that raw big card power is more important 3 handed then say 10 handed, where % of domination is more likely, so the need for big hands such as straights and flushes from 87s isn't there... But even 3handed, which I play alot of, I look for big hand potential to play big pots with, not one pair hands)

oops....theres my limit mentality coming up ... "holdem is a big card game" etc...but thats limit...3 handed i'lll take KJo over 87s any day...but in nl w/ deep stacks this could be wrong for the reaons you state and that others have mentioned.
