It's effectively arguing over that +/-0.99%.

Again, though, everyone's ignoring the chance of injury. Even if you don't think it makes any difference whether you score or go down, there's no question that there's a far greater chance of injury if you're forced to play out the final minute with a bunch of aggressive, downfield throws than there is during two kneel downs.
