I fully agree, the mini raise establishes nothing. You gain 0 information by it. I have seen people UTG mini-raise with AA's in hopes of what? This what I normally hear. I raised with the AA's or we can even say KK's, QQ's because they "Hope" someone will re-raise them so they can re-re-raise the re-raise? Yet this opens the fact that if everyone at the table calls the mini-raise there is no info about any of your opponents hole cards.
 
Then I see the mini-raise used when a bunch of people limp, someone makes a mini-bet on the flop, yet while there are 3-4 others to act after them. They will gain 0 information when everyone just calls cause they have the pot odds to do so. 
 
Another one of my favorites, mini raise for fear of a flush or a straight draw. Why give the flush and straight draw chases very correct odds to call. 
 
The mini raise is almost as useless as watching someone limp with a top ten hand vs 3-4 limpers.
 
Again you don't gain any info by mini raising or limping with a top ten pre flop hand.
 
Great post by the way
