For me it boils down to whether the loose players behind us are good players versus bad players.
If they are good players, I mostly just fold (speculative hands OOP against good players are highly unlikely to be profitable).
If they are poor players (plus assuming passive so unlikely we'll face a raise), I mostly open limp (which I notice you don't think is an option?). I limp in encouraging them to get into a cheap pot with me (where a bunch of these hands are fine with seeing a cheap multiway flop). If someone raises, I'll reevaluate (mostly fold, especially if ending up HU OOP) and I lose 1bb (big deal, next hand). And meanwhile I don't bloat pots OOP with speculative hands with little FE.
