Only read the first example but this hand literally happened to me in 6max right before you posted (I was villain with T9) and already on the flop I told myself fml and ld0 folded to a double barrel on a blank turn. I was trying to be "fancy" as I am usually disciplined to fold it but this just reassures myself to fall back to the old strat.
Thread seems pretty cool. I'm a sucker for theory.
Edit: Ok just read it all. You seem extremely similar to myself from like a year ago. I strongly believe you'll see better results with your new adjustments. Again, at one point I literally did the same (in 6max) with dropping 22-66 (sauce's advice) and playing ridiculously strong in EP. I've since added them back but my range is still really tight overall. PFC will for sure help you out it makes complete sense to do what you are doing (ISF's advice). I like the second example too because it shows that once you start playing positionally aware people you can call with LOADS of hands and just own them with good boards.
