This is frequently the best move. Instant reactions are emotional and not great, most of the time. Think carefully and you make better decisions/responses. Hell, sometimes it's even better not to respond and hold onto the information for a better opportunity later. It just depends on the situation.

Highly dependent on threat model.

It's technically always the "Best" move but if consequences are negligible then whatever
