This sounds like the anti-VC rhetoric sprinkled throughout Robert Hurst's book,
The Art of Urban Cycling.
Here's the thing, can you provide even one example, real or hypothetical, to illustrate your point? In what situation might adhering to VC 100% get you killed, and violating the vehicular rules of the road (which is what not riding VC means) would save you?
If that's not what you mean, what do you mean by, "adhering to [VC] 100% may get you killed"?
