Do you really want to be 6 handed with KK though? If 2.2 was called 5 way then imo and especially live, 7.5 total is also likely to get called in 5 spots.
I don't agree with this. Sure, if four call, number five laughs and says "value now!" before flicking in the chip. But KJ, A8 and J7cc all fold most of the time now and you end up against one or two guys with a lot of lovely dead money in the pot with the best hand.
We do also have UTG to go crazy behind with TT/AK.
I think you probably still get a caller and a chance to double with a jam as one player is likely to call thinking you have picked a good spot to pick up 14k
Just don't see many people stacking off in this spot with marginal hands. They might have a braintrump and shove into kings, but there is far more hesitance in these comps in my experience to call it all off for a race at best.
Exceptions to every rule of course. Bound to find the guy who put you on ace king and knew he was right to call with sixes. When he's shown cowboys*, he flips his lid and exclaims to anyone wondering what on Earth he's doing "How does he EVER have kings there?!"
*kids, that's what we used to call them back in the day.
