If you call and check fold you have 2.5BB, whereas you could have 2.75 BB if you fold and get a better hand in the rest of the orbit and double that so it's usually going to be a choice of 5 BB vs 5.5BB if you call pre here vs if you fold. Factor in that a high percentage of the time it will be a check/fold on the flop if you call. Where you do continue it will always be dicey. So IMO this is a speculative call. I think best not to be speculative when shortstacked unless on a high percentage bluff (works way more in NLHE). This can never be a high percentage bluff as a raise and get in postflop.
As you said, 3 big bets is plenty.
I can only conclude: Fold>Raise>Call
