I agree with this if we indeed plan to play multiple streets. I’m not convinced that we want to do that in 3betted dry K-high flop, where usually villain plays fit or fold.
  
  Scare cards are scary for him too and we win sometimes even if over cards lands. That is plenty enough for 3rdP. Over cards QA are bad obviously but there are 23456789TJK that are not scary.

I don’t mind betting flop at all, but it takes a bit more skill probably if called, then again if folded no skill needed anymore at all. Also we might think that if we CB we lose our card edge and are more depended of skill, if we check we still have card edge even if villain bets and skill part is reduced. I would chose bet line here with 99 for example, where I don't trust my skill anymore on later streets, even though same arguments probably could be used not to CB that too.

Notice that you did exactly how fish do, they bet small when they are  scared, and call happily weird pairs, and 5NL is full of players who are  risen there from 2NL by abusing them. So your defense should be at  maximum on later streets, but imo it's costly if he has K. So maybe what Fig says, just barrel.
