Both of these hands also should be folds preflop I'm pretty sure. The biggest point is that if you play wild they're not going to adjust and stack off lighter they're just going to keep waiting to hit their hands and make more than enough up for it for when they fold the best hand. Let me give you a good nlhe analogy:

I show hand where I raised preflop and then bet/3-bet/called an all-in with bottom pair because I raise and raise all my A/K/Q-high hands so they never put me on bottom pair. See the point? It doesn't matter if they don't put you on it they're going to hit top pair/2-pair/sets way too often for you to just do this. All they have to do is wait for those hands and stack you and it makes up for the times they folded their bottom pair to your Q-high shove. There are 6 combos of nlhe hands in each player's hand. That means 6max plo is like 36 nlhe hands out there. You can understand why bottom set is not that strong. There's just too many hands and one of them may have a higher pair that flopped a set as well. I'm not saying you should be giving up with bottom set but if your opponent is looking to play for stacks you're likely no good. I'd treat it pretty similar to a TPTK type hand in nlhe. You can get good amount of value with it but when villain raises you and is looking to get money in there are times you probably want to just fold it.
