One might not have fuel to go-around and circuit to land at the same airportstill with final reserve fuel, unless using diversion fuel iaw JAR-OPS. One will always have go-around plus div fuel unless you've already burnt it iaw above (in which case you should make damn sure you are stable!).
Bottom line is: any decent company (e.g. easyJet) would rather you go-around and divert, than press on and land, if not stable by 500'. Their trainset, their rules, and in easyJet you will receive 100% back-up from pilot management if you fly the jet in accordance with that policy. It is not unsafe, just slightly more expensive.
