Do you feel as though I am missing your point?
What specific questions do you think need asking?
How may one of my questions be re-worded to yield more enlightening answers?

Again: Have I misunderstood you / is my analysis complete bunk?

I think any topic is too broad when: It keeps digressing into specifics and no patterns emerge which categorize the specifics. I am confident that poker lends itself to descriptions in the form of broad guidelines from which deviations are made.
I think "outs + etc" is covered in the "board textures" question. I really like your range vs hand question.

I honestly feel that these hands play the same whether they're high or low. Mid pair/weak kicker or worse is likely to happen more times than not with these pockets. In short handed play, I can see some showdown equity in these hands, but not in FR. Other than that, this statement seems related to questions 3 - 5.
Revised list of questions (2):
<< Justification >>
1) Why would these hands be playable?
2) What value do they add to/remove from a range?
<< Pre-Flop Scenario >>
3) How does stack sizing affect your decision to get involved in a pot with these hands?
4) How does position and number/style of opponents factor in to your play?
5) How do pre-flop bets affect your overall strategy or goal when playing these pockets?
<< Tactics >>
6) What board textures are favorable/unfavorable?
6a) What boards hit your range hard vs those that hit your hand hard?
7) How does stack sizing or SPR affect post-flop play of these hands?
8) In what circumstances is building the pot favorable to playing a small pot?
What obvious questions am I missing here?
