I personally don't think any of these is a no-brainer. For instance, if you call with suited trash getting 5:1 (I usually do, which is marginal), is it then "trivial" to call 7:1 with suited trash? I'd say "no" because suited trash needs "playability" which pretty much equals "folding equity". "Folding equity", in turn, doesn't have very much value playing 4-ways. With the K, are you pleased with hitting it on the flop? I doubt that there are often 3 streets of value when we hit. Still, it's decent hands and we get good odds.

I really don't trust any qualitative argument I've heard because there are always other qualitative arguments to counter them. My own stats don't give me a clue either. As I play now, I'd call with most of them playing 2 tables, but fold almost all of them when playing more tables.
