Open pushing in later stages

So the question for debate is, when should you open-push all-in in the later stages of an MTT?

When the ratios are right. Say when a normal raise would be around 40% of your stack or more. It's related to the pot odds you would be getting if you raised a normal amount and got re-raised allin, and maximising the pressure you are putting on others.

I think a lot of people like to complicate shallow money situations when they are mostly pretty simple.
