I thought this was actually a pretty standard check-up, /thread after a confirmation or two. Am I out to lunch here?

Yeah, so it a tighty all-in occurs from a shortstacked player who has picked his spot to go all in we should immediately call with our easily dominated hand because we are getting over 2:1.
Oh wait --- and he's probably on a range of any pair + AK, heck, maybe even AQ and suited connectors here, although I realize I didn't give a range in my OP) and we're getting over 2:1 here to make a call.
You might have realized you didn't give a range in your OP, so I gave and example of folding KQ from the button and explained that the villian had a raising range of AA, KK, and maybe QQ.
Now all of a sudden this unknown SB in your OP will push short stacked with any pair AK, AQ and 'heck' maybe even suited connectors?
Really, why? You might check some posts here about bad live players and raising ranges short stacked.
Some players might even tighten up their raising range when SS.
But I am a noob -- of course the SB in your example plays perfect 2+2 Strat, so it is an insta-call -- yes, you are correct.
