These guys are advocating that you play weak tight.

Perhaps, but late in a tournament situation, I don't think making villian pay for a draw is weak (in a ring game, trapping might be right, in this situation I'm not so sure). I agree that this is probably a "go broke" hand regardless, but since that's the case, there is no sense not building your fold equity along the way. Make villian start seeing monsters under the bed.
Also, the name of the thread is "Getting away from hands." If the OP is at all concerned about "getting away" with any chance to move up a place or two before busting out, then he has to raise the flop to have any chance to eject. I guess that's weak, but the real $'s have their lure as well.
