It seems that I did not understand your post
You wrote:

"Both sides have a piece that they need to protect or defend, if they don't the
loose almost immediatly. So the line is a series of moves from both sides trying
to vary their game to push the inevitable draw forward."

I understood from it that you extend in case that the side to move has a piece
under threat.

If you do not extend then I do not see why the fact that both side has
a piece that they need to protect is relevant.
