Half-pot is the size used by people who don't think about bet sizing. If you dropped it from your bet sizes, you would not be giving up very much at all.
Is that for all streets, Alan? If so, you prefer a more polar set of betting choices, like, check or 1/4-1/3 pot OR 80%-125+%?
Interesting way of thinking about it. I'd beem betting 1/2 pot because, "That's the way it's been done." (Insert odds discussion that sometimes applied, mostly didn't.)
