Stack sizes are crucial, as are tendencies of limpers. The more shorter we are / the more our opponents are ABC face up non-difficult players, the more we should be opening ourselves. The deeper we are / the more our opponents are difficult players, the more completing is fine (imo).
Facing the raise out of the blinds is also pretty dependent. A $10 raise from the BB after 4 limpers will see a 7way pot at my table 100% of the time (as two people will dig random hands out of the muck and call); looks like your table plays quite different. At the same time, you have to take into account this was a raise out-of-the-blinds (for some players this is only an extremely nit range which AQo does not fare well against); but pretty player dependent (and mostly at my loose table this is JTs/etc. wanting to build a pot).
