Help me see why this is a call - AQs 20BB raise pre then get 3b jammed on

So villain has been at the table for 16 hands and has stats of 25/21,
with 0% 3b. I know not enough stats to draw anything from. When I open
here I have to be 40% against his 3b range. The reason I think this is a
fold is the fact that I have raised a 20BB stack from EP/MP1 so is this
player really shoving AJ here? If I can't put any hands in that I
dominate, should this be a fold?



I'm guessing that everyone is going to say this is a 'standard' get in,
but I'm struggling to see why it's standard. If I have 40% equity that
means I lose 60% of the time. We're 70 people left in a 2,087 runner
$3.30 MTT on Stars. I guess what I'm looking for is arguments for and
against calling to see if anyone can make me see why this is a call.
