I would be interested in hearing why you think this is better than a pot-sized reraise.
One reason might be that if we want a hand like QQ/JJ to call, we have to make it look like how we would play AK or a small PP. If I wanted to "play back" with either of these, I would probably push.

i'd push because i'm not going to put in half my stack without getting the other half in and i'd rather not give someone a chance to call me and then fold to my flop push if they miss/call me if they hit.

KK will still call, QQ will probably still call (though they should fold regardless of what we raise to), AK may call thinking we have QQ. the reraiser has one of these hands 95% of the time.
