you really confuse me sometimes. this seems backwards to me.

it is. you're going to stop raising K9o and crap, not your good hands.

Perhaps I'm undervaluing suited aces out of position. I think it's important to keep villains under control in postflop play. If they're starting to play back at me, then they're starting to play more correctly. I don't want that. So I'm not going to continually beat them over the head and teach them to play better.

In the back of my mind, I've got Poker Essays II (I just purchased/read it recently). He has a chapter called "Trying to Play Great" (p.133) where his #1 error is isolating too much. He talks about it as "weak players learning to call you down", but I think in the online shorthanded post-WPT world, weak players start pushing back.
