The problem with 3 bet pushing the flop is that your opponent will only call with hands that beat you but not call you with a queen. The only hands better than you that fold are MAYBE j9 and j10.

this is just weak tight jibberish.

No, it's smart. Three-betting the flop is going to make him fold a lot of hands that you want calling, so you miss out on lots of value, such as those times he interprets your call as weakness and pushes the turn.

pushing will get you much more value. a raise to t500 SCREAMS of strength.
