I'm not disagreeing with you, but a better question is: Would a better hand EVER fold? It sure won't be often, but at this point in the hand, who cares? At least give him the chance to make that mistake.

The idea is to not get into this situation in the first place. Maybe we shouldn't be looking to outplay a good player. But once we get to the river.... I'm not a big fan of just giving up. It's a small tragedy if a guy's calling the turn with JJ or TT hoping to improve and would've folded the river after he misses AND the flush got there. It's only one bet. Worst case is you're caught speeding. I'm sure hero can take advantage of this later.
