Since you are the only one advocating for this, I think we'd all benefit from an explanation.

Gracias sir.

Against most of villian's range calling is the thing he'd least like you to do. If he's semibluffing a big draw he either picks up the pot with a fold or 3bets all in with tons of FE and lots of equity when you raise. If he has a set he gets to 3bet you again. If he's bluffing, well you called and he can see whether he wants to bluff again. Obv a raise gets a fold right there, but its terrible against the rest of his hand range.
Obviously calling puts you to difficult decisions on later streets, but thats poker. Against villian's range of hands it's the most correct by the fundamental theory of poker.
