3-bet JTs vs. MP open?

Hi guys, I did an upswing quiz and I'm wondering if one of they suggest taking is correct.

Q10) You're playing $2/$5 live with $500 stacks. Middle position (decent regular) raises to $20 and you're on the button with J♠️ T♠️.

A: The correct answer is to 3-bet. The best sizing is somewhere between $60 and $80. This hand is a good candidate for a 3-bet bluff because it blocks strong hands such as AJs, ATs, KJs, KTs, JJ and TT.
If one (or both) of the players in the blinds is a very weak player who will make many mistakes preflop and postflop, calling becomes a more reasonable option in order to draw them into the pot.

My line here would be to call, and instead make 3-bet bluffs with borderline unplayable hands such as (67s - 43s & Low suited aces).Pokersnowie agrees this is a call, and 3-bets low suited aces as bluffs instead.

What are your thoughts on 3-betting this hand? Is it because MP raised (strong range)? If so why does Snowie prefer to call?

This is the quiz if anybody wants it https://upswingpoker.com/instagram-poker-quiz/?infcontactkey=f70309ecec98584f5c10990d0d1a4f5309c74070ac2bf3cfa7869e3cfd4ff832
