Can you expand on why we would stack off/continue with bottom 2 pair + FD, but in some cases fold top 2?

ie...With top 2 we have card removal against top/middle set, with bottom 2 we unblock top pair/set and I would think are more likely to be up against top set, or at best top pair with 9 side cards to improve to a better 2 pair, plus any other improvements opponent may have (FD and or SD).

Thx!

Hello! With bare top 2 pair we do block our opponent's top and middle sets, but if we are up against such combos, we are almost dead, and with bottom 2 pair + FD we have more equity against a set. That's why in some scenarios, playing a big pot on a dynamic flop, we'd rather have a weaker made hand along with a strong draw rather than a stronger made hand without a draw.
