I think a good shoot is a good shoot....
I have no idea what people think they mean by that. A shoot is lawful if the totality of the evidence is such that it is not proven otherwise beyond a reasonable doubt.

...and "too close" is a heck of a lot easier to argue than "too far". If the attacker has a contact weapon and is close enough to use it, "too close" should not even come into the equation.
All other things being equal, that is very probably true.

Ideally we would never want to allow an attacker to be at bad breath distance before we realized it, but sometimes stuff happens.
Yep.
