Default Pot odds thoughts

Hello.

Game Limit Texas Hold'em. I have some thoughts about pot odds and hands on flop with only 1-6 outs.

Most of these hands you only have odds to call on the flop and when the bet amount doubles on turn you usually don't have the right odds to call.

My thoughts are, shouldn't we calculate the pot odds based on only seeing the turn? The regular charts are based on turn and river to come, but you know you will only call the flop and then fold the turn if not improved because of the lack of pot odds.

As example, something like this:
4 outs regular: 16.5% 5.06 to 1 --> becomes --> 7.8% 11.82 to 1
5 outs regular: 20.3% 3.93 to 1 --> becomes --> 9.4% 9.64 to 1

What's your thoughts on this?

/Hagel.
