how many times have we all seen inexperienced players raise with a hand like TT/AQ, and then the flop comes that they whiffed and completely has them baffled what to do? if your V is a wanna be grinder, I'd say he's more likely to not raise middle strength hands
because he's a wanna be so:
1) he's going to have some clue about position. he'll have awful position the whole hand in a big pot. smaller pots are easier to get away from when you get overcarded/whiff
2) he may have some clue about his perceived range. and by this i mean, he's going to think everyone puts him on AK
3) he probably knows he's not getting 5 folds, so when he whiffs on a 732 board with AQ he doesnt have to continue.
4) he probably isnt battle tested enough to use chips as ammo rather than $$$. when the board comes AJ4 and he has TT as a PFR, he doesnt want to bet/fold/or call.
i'd also say there is a better than average chance he would limp most hands from the SB because lol pot odds, including Q5/T5. something i've seen countless people do is complete because so many callers before them they feel compelled to and maybe they can hit their hand
this one time
worst case scenario: V1 grows a brain and folds OTT, you're essentially calling 470 to win 855. 1.82:1, or 35% equity

SB*****35.28%**28.76%***6.52%*{ QQ, TT, 55, QTs, Q5s, T5s, QTo, Q5o, T5o }
easily a call down in this scenario
best case is V1 calls down also (granted, he would have a stronger range). in which case its calling 470 to win 1100, 2.34:1 or 29.9% equity

we're still getting enough to call if V1 sticks around, which OP thinks he will.
i think a strong case can be made that this is a hand we should be going to showdown with
