There are plenty of other things that can be done to speed up play so lets not take unnecessary risks. I can't tell you how many times I had to tell someone to watch out for someone else hitting up. Sometimes people have tunnel vision when golfing, only thinking about their shot.
Hitting up to the hole while you are on the green. I have been playing since I was 12, coaching hs golf since I was 28 until I retired and officiated over 100 hs golf tournaments. I have a pretty good sense of what is safe on a golf course.

Maybe I do need to work on my writing.
