I think there's a greater than zero chance that an unkown bets when checked to on the flop. I clearly can't just call with the opportunity to steal the whole thing or minimally get headsup.
once we got HU, I felt I had a shot to fold out a better pp or a six by leading out.

Or, you could just fold your trash.
This is a small pot, multi way, and this doesn't work enough at 2-4 to warrant this much going in with bottom pair/no redraws.
