You want your opponents to make a mistake against you. So, if you reraise an amount that it would make it incorrect for him to play against you, you profit. Yes, you still profit if you make this small reraise since you are "pricing him in", but you are not letting him make a mistake against you. You are letting him play correctly against you, and you are basically waiting for the random number generator to figure out the winner in this battle because you are both playing correctly preflop.
Also, as you move up in limits, people will start to notice that you are only doing this when you have a monster holding, and people will adjust to this.
