folding this on the button is kinda crazy...

u dont HAVE to cap, but it will make it easier to play for sure.

I think the opposite is probably true, though capping will often keep it 3 ways

Capping on the button will more often than not cause those in front of you to check, making your decision easier on the flop.

Simple. You are defining your hand to others and can gauge their responses to you.

If you cap it for instance and an A flops and you get check/raised or raised, pretty easy fold.
If all rags come and they are just calling, you are probably ahead of overcards. Or if you get raised on the turn on a rag board you are probably against AA/KK. Stuff like, I can't go trough all the permutations - but it makes it easier.
