People say "all in" instead of "max bet"?
Keep in mind this is 3hrs at 1 table of NL, so I really don't know. There were no real big stacks at my table, but I didn't notice any major differences.

Its $4 from any position
except the button. It makes it $8 to limp. And you get to act last preflop. Eventually I just started killing every CO. Bloated pots, simpler decisions, and better position, what's not to like?
Hero has $240 and kills the CO, gets dealt KK. EP player calls $8 (he's been pretty quiet, unknown, $150 stack), folds to BB who calls $8 (fairly solid, likes to chase draws but usually knows exactly where he's at, covers table). Action to Hero, how much to raise?
Edit to add I've played 2 bighands at this table. One: killpot two limpers for $8 each I raise AKo to $38 OTB, everyone folds and I show. Two: killpot, I call $25 cold from the CO kill with 65s, shove 2nd pair on the flop and dodge 6 outs FTW. Image might help.
