no.
3betting light is like walking a tight rope. You have to balance it out with many options.
You 3bet light for a few reasons:
win money
open up your range pre
take advantage of PoF leaks (hopefully in position)
as with any part of your game over using this or applying it to the incorrect player type will lose you money.
it is true that many 10%+3betters are breakeven or even losers.
a nice 5-6% stat is good imo.
My rules for 3betting:
who:more vs weak regs or passive foldy fish
less vs good regs and stations or aggrofish
when: way more IP than OOP.
what: I way prefer to 3bet say A9o vs AJs. I am not a big fan of 3betting scs (I know that some are). However if you have a good read on a villains range or PoF tendencies you can 3bet any hand. Just dont repeat too many times in a short period of time.
