I'd check and fold the river.

Hate to echo, but I don't mind echoing one of the current greats.

Yes. Any ace, pair will check considering the loose/passive table compostion; however, I don't think even a typical loose/passive 3/6 player will call anything less than a flush here. No reason to bet this. Anywhere.

Saying that a non-flush won't call is 100% false.

SO why didn't you bet, for instance, the river with an EV+ gain of at least 1 BB if a non-flush did/would call your bet.

Because this is 4-way. Because the pot's tiny. Because these are very loose very passive fish who very well might not bet a flush on the turn. Because there are only a few hands that are going to call here that I'm beating. Because I'm risking 1BB to win 3-ish.
