Donking that flop will sometimes work out, but I think you end up spewing too much of the time. Just because SB checked the flop to the raiser doesn't mean he did not catch a piece of the flop. And sometimes CO will play back at you just for giggles.

In a lot of cases, the presence of the sb prevents the CO from raising with a worse hand here. SB might c/r, sure. But they both might also fold, and you might win this pot with the non-best hand. That is good poker.

(Yes, I'd rather have more of a read to justify betting this flop. I'd just like to say that it is an option.)
