In most $1/$2 games, I agree. This game was reasonably tight-weak
pre-flop, and I actually expected folds behind me. My goal at the time
was to make it look like feeler raise, because I actually thought the
min-raiser was trying to induce a reraise with KK, QQ, JJ, or AK. It
didn't work out that way, and I agree in most spots clearing the field
strongly even if it wins right there is a good play. In this game, I more
or less though I'd end up heads up with the min-raiser. Even $10 preflop
raises were being viewed as "too much" in this game. (I had stolen the
blinds four times with $10 raises already that night.)
