DM - Decison Making, besides all the dangers with High Energy GA, why even attempt to make the approach?

Windshear reported on the Runway! Given the amount of fuel the crew had, they had plenty of options. However this comes down to company culture in my opinion, pressure on crew to get in no matter what!
I was thinking the same thing when the controller seemingly reported severe turbulence and windshear in the weather sequence.

The approach plate for runway 22 has this note: 'Increased turbulence and windshear may be expected on final.'
