This question is too ambiguous to be useful. I would need to know what
percentage of the perceived risk had not been mitigated. If it was 50%
you die 50% you live, I would decline. 10/90% would be where I start
serious considerations. The key word here is "perceived risk", but thats
the best we can do.
