I would also play safe, but NOT BECAUSE it's DMP. Rather DESPITE it being DMP.
You cannot win a gammon, but you can loose one. To loose a gammon here, you must be hit, probably both checkers. The only way for that to happen, is playing 5*
So I'd figure this decision being much closer at GS than DMP.

BTW: Is this the exact threshold for play-safe vs. hit, two checkers off? One more checker off and I'd hit, at least in DMP...
