I'm surprised you think 1600-1700 ft (as stated by JE) is low level. Surely if you suffer from either LTE or LTA at that height or higher, you have plenty of time to recover, so there should be no need for a precautionary landing.
If on the other hand, there was a tail rotor malfunction, you would expect any pilot, male or female, to get it down quickly where of course it would then be easier to fix the problem.
