Short blind levels lower your EV per tournament (assuming your good post flop) but at the same time also allow the fishies to take down a tournament every once in a while. For example, poor players would be far less likely to win a stars deepstack tourney(lots of chips, long blind levels) than they would be to win a Party Touney(Few chips, short blind levels).
As for you AK example, you would only have 600 chips left to put in the pot on the turn, so why not put it all in the flop. Put your opponent to a decision, show him that our commited to the hand and that your not going anywhere. Basically if 1/3+ of your chips are going into the pot on a raise you might as well put them all in and test your opponent.
Notes are fairly useless in tournaments since its not very likely that you'll keep running into those people.
