Re go-around or not, I reckon the first thing a pilot should do is have the decision made before the landing is attempted. The landing strip may not be suitable for a go-around, or the distance remaining after a bounce may not be sufficient for a go-around, due to for example terrain. The idea of telling students to just default to go-round is a way to make the decision for them.
