If V raised to 200 or even 300, I might agree.
Raising to 500 though is _at best_ super polarized nuts or bluff, assuming he does this with 66 goes against a lot of data and 44/22 is mostly hopium. Maybe V is really that bad, and won't fold 66, but assuming that without more knowledge seems like a bad long term strat.
Again, to be clear, I assume I call at the table ... maybe even quickly with a "well I'm not raising and not folding, so lol only one option" ... but being able to think about it for minutes safely away from the table, then we really need V to be overvaluing hands in a bad way or doing weird things or capable of bluffing for huge amounts, so I doubt it's a long term profitable call. It's just the stone cold nuts more than a genius play. Like we need 39% equity vs. range to break even and we
don't even have that vs. 53,66,44,22 ... it is 43% vs. 5x3x and 66, so I guess the call is "good" but lol shoving.
There's even this video of "good" players doing the same human BS:
