But still on an island(s) thousands of miles away with no chance of air support should the runway be denied!
So no airfield for the Argies to seize and land troops which means an amphibious landing, which means running the gauntlet of the SSNs plus whatever surface assets we have down there and then an opposed landing!

Maybe with a half decent naval force you could risk it but somehow I cant see the Argies going for it
