<Snipped quote by Techspert>

Sometimes, wheb your defense is outmatched despite all efforts, neutralizing a threat before it has made itself ready enough to knock down your door is the best defense. "Best defense is a good offense," and such.

When it comes between perfect defense and perfect offense, a perfect defense always guarantees survival. You could make the same argument about being outmatched when it comes to offense.
