PioSolver impractical for lower limits?

I started playing 20nl and 50nl on global poker and am trying to develop a training strategy. At a glance, everyone in this site seems to think pioSolver is essential to optimize your game, but looking at it, it seems like it makes a million assumptions about opponents that aren't true. If I understand correctly, I would have to manually go and block out all options that I think each opponent are incapable of which is a ton for every single spot that I might want to study. Even the regs are so far from optimal that I don't know how to use this.

What are your guys takes on this? Is this thing just going to distract me/waste my time or am I just misunderstanding how it can benefit players in the micros/low stakes?

At lower limits I would stick to mostly exploitative play. That being said, it's pretty tough to know if what you're doing is really exploiting anyone if you don't know what they're meant to do in the first place. If you have access to PIO, it's a good tool to use to see how spots should play out, where you see people play differently than that, and then how to exploit players based on that knowledge.
