Sure vilas, like I indicated in my last paragraph.

But if you're full-bore on how to complete everything, you're in a much better position to cut bits as required when it gets really nasty. It's quite possible to run everything flying a 1000'/230 kt circuit, and still have spare time. Level of support tends to be the limiting factor.

Startle factor, actual problem, and presence/absence of supporting indicators are also considerations as to when the immediate return decision is made.
