Glad you're considering the things that get panic taps out of you when they shouldn't. Keeping calm in a fight is something that's really important, and 90% of that comes through knowing what's coming. People tap most often from the techniques they don't know (as you can see if you watch the early submissions wins Royce Gracie pulled out), which is why it's definitely important to learn a lot of submissions, even if you don't intend to use them.

Good post, and that's definitely a good thing to learn.
