Sticking to the facts helps to make your argument more persuasive.

The Transasia incident landing stayed on the runway until after the runway threshold, and only veered off the stopway. Had this been an EMAS, it would possibly have stopped inside it. Look at the satellite image with superimposed track at pp.49,61 of the "Occurrence report".
