A checkfold on the flop seems much, much too weak.

I don't think so. A little weak I will grant you but I don't think it warrants two "much"es. The problem is that when you are ahead, it's very difficult to maximise your profit on the turn and river because you're out of position and your opponents will probably just call down with most Ks and some As. When you're behind though, you're going to either lose at showdown if you get there without getting raised or bet and fold to a raise, neither of which are particularly desirable.

Mabye I'm entirely wrong though and check-folding is "much, much too weak". I'd be interested to see what others think.
