One other thing, you were wondering about the practical application of this. I believe this means at the mid-to-high buy-ins, you should not pass up these UTG opportunities. Such as your KQ example, or Degen's A9 example a few days ago. A good reason for this is that the 74 example is less likely to come about, since it is less likely to be folded around to you.

However, you should in fact pass on these opportunities at the lower buy-ins, from what I have read by other posters. I think Lorinda has said to pass on these UTG marginal opportunities, in part because there is a greater edge later in the lower buy-ins. It is more likely to be folded around to you, and there are greater +EV opportunities closer to the bubble, whereas there are fewer ar the higher buy-ins. This is perhaps why Lorinda can successfully be tighter than other 2+2'ers at different buy-in levels, who need to be more liberal with their pushing ranges and marginal +EV opportunities.
