I think something that is more useful than scenarios and macro statistics might be rules of thumb so to speak at the micro or as I like to call it, the
personal level. Many of those have been posted here and they include danger avoidance and well as decision points.
Macro statistics can be misleading when faced with danger. The statistics tell us that most all of us will never face a violent criminal but that statistic is meaningless when YOU are faced with it. If we just use the macro view then there is really no need for any of us to carry or own guns since the "statistics" say the odds are great we will never be accosted by a violent criminal (I carry but have never been attacked). The anti-gun folks use these macro statistics for their own arguments against RTKBA.
Therefore I don't think that this statement:

Yes, being submissive is the best choice, hands down.

is true in the personal sense just because macro statistics say it might be. That decision has to be weighed in the moment and so the rules of thumb, training or other criteria come into play and that I think is where the T&T threads may have value.
