If the villain is jamming a ridiculous amount of hands here (knowing that we don't want to call light due to the existence of a short stack) I can see an argument for calling wider than normal. But even if villain is opening half of his hands we're only about 60% with ATo, which sounds good but I believe is a losing play ICM-wise.
So I think we have to justify the call by either a.) believing there's some stack utility to having 50BB and/or b.) thinking our opponent might even be wider than that. I think there's enough merit to either of those points to suggest calling might be ok.
