Of course its stack size dependant. We do not want to raise to 3BB or more with a 20-25BB effective stack, because then we lose to much, when we get 3-bet, and we create a low SPR, where we often dont have much room to navigate postflop. But early in the tournament with 100BB effective stacks its completely fine to use larger open sizes.

Also the whole point is, that we are talking about loose games with many multiway pots, and we should not be C-betting in multiway pots, unless we have a strong made hand or a strong draw, which we are willing to play a big pot with. The idea of min-raising preflop and then C-betting 25-30% of the flop with nothing is for tight games, where people fold to much.

In very loose games we should also not be following GTO preflop charts. For instance such charts typically has us opening all suited aces from UTG at a 9-handed table. But if an UTG open will commonly get 3-4 callers, then we dont want to be stuck in such a situation with A2s, because it puts us in to many difficult and unprofitable postflop spots, where we are out of position against multible opponents and have no idea, if for instance our top pair or our wheel straight is any good.
