I seldom post here, but I play lots of SNG's.

From my perspective I have to ask myself do I want to maximize my chances of winning or am I trying to make the money.

Me personally I always play to come in first place. For me this is an easy push. You're playing four handed, the big stack raises and you have a premium hand. I think the likelyhood that he has an inferior hand is very great. Also
nobody has pointed out how many times villian will call with
a smaller pocket pair or Ace small kicker and hero doubles up. Plus by pushing we still do have quite a bit of fold equity.
