Default Discards (was Dinghy pursuit racing: advice needed)

Shucks, if I'm going to protest somebody I almost always do a 720 just
for CYA. Protest committees do some wierd things, I've seen them ignore
clear cut infractions, hand DSQs to stand-on boats, but so far I haven't
had one hand me a DSQ after a 720.


My memory could be playing tricks, but aren't there cases where by
taking a 720 you are admitting blame, and it prevents you from winning a
protest against the other party?
