(Provided that your UTG range is strong enough, and doesn't consist of like 15% of hands).

The main point though is that any concern that someone is going to exploit a 4bet-or-fold tendency pales into total insignificance compared with the money you'll bleed playing 3bet pots OOP.
excellent point I didn't think of. makes a lot of sense being OOP sucks. lol
