I believe that I have the ability to quickly change the level of my alertness based on current conditions and surroundings; but to say that I, or anyone else for that matter can walk around in a constant state of anything other than condition white is completely silly. Even soldiers in heavy combat zones go into condition white when the heat is off. YOU HAVE TO. Your body and mind will demand you stand down over time. Besides, complete and total situational awareness is impossible. You can't see, hear, and correctly interpret EVERYTHING at all times.
One of the absolute oldest tricks we were ever taught is to cause a mildly alarming (yellow to orange) threat elsewhere for the target of focus on, then hit 'em somewhere else. Works suprisingly well....even on computer rambos...
