Question about BSS Starting Hand Chart

Hi everyone,

I am trying to learn to play NL poker by following the PokerStrategy guide.

I came across something in the no limit starting hands chart that I am not able to understand

My question is as follows...: Why with Suited Face Cards as well as with Suited Connectors the chart recommends in Middle Pos. to fold if all players before you folded BUT it also recommends in Middle Pos. as well to call if some player calls before you.

My point is, either if someone calls or folds before hero in middle pos. with suited facer cards or suited connectors, shouldn't hero always call the BB in both cases?

My current user status doesn't allow me to post links... sorry about that, I hope whoever willing to help finds the chart I am referring to.

Thanks in advance

I wouldn't call with any hand first in and raise with my raising range from middle position. With raising you can win right away or play against a smaller amount of players post-flop than if you would limp pre-flop.
