I am not sure you understood. So, let's clarify. Here is the quote:

I’m generally pretty happy to give up a small equity improvement in exchange for a decent opportunity of inviting my opponent to Drop a scary Take or Take a steamy/optimistic Drop on a subsequent turn.

Double now and he takes, or double later and he takes -- the same thing, because equity in both cases equal.

Disclaimer: I do not have anything against other ways to benefit from delayed double :-)
