Would you evacuate ?

Would you evacuate if landing with the nose gear retracted?

I'm operating 737, but I think it's the same for every model...

The Partial or Gear Up Landing Non Normal cklist calls for the Evacuation to be performed, whilst the Training manual says "if required".

Not in the sim, but in real life if I see no evident reason to evacuate, probably I would not.

On the 737 you can open the cockpit windows and have a good look at the engines.
Not so on other types...

Your opinions are most welcome.
