I don't disagree with your main point. However, sometimes just calling is not the best play. If your hand is worth calling is it often worth reraising. That way you gain initiative and give your opponent difficult decisions, where he often may fold a good hand or call with a worse hand.

Good points.

The primary exception I would have to these and it seems to come up a lot in online MTTs, is when you are pretty sure to be way ahead or way behind. In these cases, IMHO, the call is the optimal play.
