If you can articulate it @ 2 yards why is it different @ 50 yards?

well because distance does mitigate certain aspects of danger rather easily. Distance can also offer options associated "time" that closer proximity does not. Close proximity can often times go hand in hand with compounding exigencies, urgencies and things supporting the idea that something is imminent. Distances can also hamper a person ability to accurately assess exactly what is happening and why. If you cannot imagine how a danger at 2 yards may not be viewed with the same level urgency as the same at 50 yards.. I don't know how to explain it.
I agree that the time for worry about court or legal trouble isn't when you are fighting for your life. I will focus on survival
