I believe in efficient markets. If Limit SnGs were very profitable, more people would be playing them and discussing them here.

Furthermore, in any tournament situation, you will often find yourself short-stacked on a regular basis. In a NL situation, you are at least able to double up your chips with some sort of advantage or at least make it a mistake for the blinds to call you. In limit however, you don't have this edge.

This isn't really true. The big advantage in NL tournaments the ability to win money by blind stealing. If you have 500 left with a BB of 100, you just move allin and often people will fold. You can do this with any 2 cards.
It's actually harder to double up with a good hand. If you raise with a good hand, people are likely to fold in NL (which is fine too).
In limit, people will call your small raise and you can often double or triple up if they stay until the river. Of course, this is the problem: you actually have to win at showdown. Even good hands don't win more than 60-80% of the time. If against multiple opponents, your chances of winning are usually under 50%.
It doesn't matter how good you are. Once the blinds get high, you will need to win hands at showdown in limit. You don't get anything for free.
