If you can't fix whatever mess you got into with one mag, you're in waaaay over your head. A second or third mag is not going to make any difference.
You are not going into combat. Nor are you fighting crime.
"...quality ammunition that Law Enforcement carries..." Ammo is sold to 'em by the highest bidder. Isn't necessarily "quality". Most cops never practice with or even fire their issue firearm anyway.

a gun fight is a gun fight.. fighting is combat by it very nature. Fighting crime or not, ...the sentiment make no difference toward winning or losing. One could argue that if you are defending yourself from an unlawful attack, you are fighting crime. I get you meaning though, and you are right.. I am no crime fighter.
As far as ammo goes, the next bullet out the barrel may be the one that saves you if the last one didn't. Carrying an extra mag may not always be about ammo, it may be about a stoppage via magazine defect. One good way to remedy that sort of stoppage is to simply ditch the mag for another.
To say that extra ammo cant or wont matter is just plain silly
