Polarized or depolarized or mix strategy

Hey guys

Kinda interested in what you ranges of 3 betting will be vs. different positions.
Would you use linear or polarized range?

When our opps strategy does not include a lot of calling, of course we will use polarized range not burning ev of coldcalling hands.
But when we are facing opponent with mostly coldcalling strategy our strat will be to build a strong depolarized range, so that we can have good board coverage and play on most boards.
But I see a lot of regs using polarized range of 3bets in general. Both in position and out of position.

I see the point of polarized range, we just take our best hands and take hands from our folding range.
But when it comes to postflop, it's kinda crap with polarized range.
We don't have playability on most boards.

I see that for both ranges our distribution of equity quite changes in 3betpots. We realize Folding equity the same with both ranges, but when it comes to realizing pot equity, polarized range sucks.

Appreciate thoughts on this theme.
