This is a "cute" response, but probably the opposite of helpful.
Sure, you probably aren't playing online 10kNL crushers at 1-2 or 2-5 with thousands of hours of GTO study ... but the understanding of theory is a big spectrum and it's worth knowing that a player is/isn't aware of concepts.
As for the hand, I think this is a hand that kind of plays itself on the turn at spreadlimit ... just max raise turn and see what he does. It's not like he can overbet shove as a response, if he has the nuts.
In a normal 1-2 game I probably call turn because we have $500 more to lose, but here we can bet+bet for $200 on brick runouts and will lose an extra $100 if he has it.
Also losing an extra $100 to KdTd or something if he just calls feels like a "whatever, I guess I should fold more preflop".
