In a D3K situation, yes.

Who said anything about placating anyone? 95% of my games are played under rules that require me to go when asked. I do it in the other 5% partly out of habit, partly because I don't see a down side to it.

I'm probably just as confident as the next person about trusting my judgement, but believing is not knowing. We all know there are situations where we may not have the best view of things. A possible checked swing is one of them. I'm curious to hear your general or specific reason not to check if asked.
