it's almost always harder for human players to avoid errors when playing offense in contact positions rather than defense.

This is true as far as it goes, but I don't think it goes far enough. Part of the defender's equity lies in playing the game well when the attack fails and the game turns around. Such positions are, in my experience, just as fraught with difficult decisions as an attack is. How do you contain a straggler that is trying to slime its way back home? When do you redouble? These are not easy decisions.
