Thus, on a tactical basis - unless you need to prevent grievous bodily harm - why does one approach someone if you really think there is a need to fight or a prediction of such?
THIS.

If you know anything at all, you know that distance = safety. The further you are from your adversary, the less likely/able he is to do you harm. Distance gives you time to think, time to evade/maneuver/outwit your adversary, time to get help, time to do any number of things that can save your life.

There's no reason whatsoever to get within arm's reach of your adversary if you can possibly avoid it.
