4. If you raise you have a decent to good chance of being HU for three-bets each and a very good chance of having no more than a 3-way pot for three bets each (i.e., it is very likely that at least one of the blinds will fold if you three-bet).

If the BB is such that he can find a lot of calls even if I three-bet then this seems like a really easy 3-bet. FWIW, I think you might be overestimating the time a BB will call 2 cold here.

Good. My point was that a three-bet will often knock out at least one of the blinds and perhaps both. The question is whether or not that is a good thing.

I thought if I said that is was likely to knock out both blinds that people would object so I tried to say that you are likely to knock out at least one blind and perhaps both. perhaps I didn't make that clear though. In any event, do you want those mediocre blinds in or not?
