You're right it should affect our decision making process, other than whether to sit down at all.
This is actually a big factor, it's not a 25/50 game, it's 7/50, so that will skew the math a lot making QTs a fold in this example.
The bankroll thing is another matter. Basically you need around 25,000 to play 2/5, so the risk of ruin is a thing if you aren't rolled. Might be better to just min raise QTs, in fact in might be ok to raise to 100 with any hand you are playing to isolate the random hand if you are playing a short BR, you never really get flatted at 2/5, it's actually -ev for anyone to flat vs your stack anyway, and you will have perfect odds to call it off vs a shove
