An analogy if I may: I am not going to wear my seat belt because if I do get in an accident in my car, it has air bags and the doors are locked. And if worse comes to worse, I have medical insurance. How about another: I will leave the door to my house unlocked and open. If some one want to come in and steal something, I have my gun handy. The key word that you hit the nail on the head is fallback. Fallbacks are if the front defense fails. They are not a replacement for a front defense, which is what the relay setting amount to in this discussion. Yes, those fallbacks are very reliable. That is not the point!
