rwm,
Agree 100% with what you say,a perfectly safe and competent attitude to have.
I must say that with nearly 18 yrs under my belt,I have never been pressured into signing for anything I'm not happy with.I have no problems with grounding an aircraft and have done so on many occasions but I would not ground it strictly on the basis that it's out of limits.It depends on by how much and what the problem is.
Rightly or wrongly this is the real world.
