This is pretty much correct. I'm not saying TAGs more +EV, they aren't. I'm saying it's easy to play against them and you can pull more moves. When I get raised by one, I can be far more sure that they have what they're representing than a LAG.

But neither is as easy as playing against loose/passive calling folding stations.

True. I need to stop making useless posts. I think I'm subconsciously trying to get to pooh-bah faster.

Multitabling TAGs cannot survive higher levels without adjusting their reads. You will be able to make a few plays once in a while, but you won't be able to do it often. Some are aware that other TAGs need to be randomly checked for bluffs. If you raise without the flush on a 4-flush board and get called, the percentage of time they fold to your further raises in similar situations goes down drastically.
Most TAGs still have a wide enough raising range so that you would have to spend some chips to figure out where you are. The traditional TAG way is to bluff the right amount or close to it. If you give a TAG too much credit, he will turn into a LAG just for you and run over you.

Multitabling doesn't mean straightforward play.

Totally agreed, especially the predictable ones that don't mix up their play.

I suspected this is what you meant, and I totally agree.
