With the advent of nonoperative management for so many injuries nowadays, some people get in the mindset to "keep the patient out of the OR" that they feel a subtle pressure to underestimate injuries (IMHO).
An old graybeard who is one of my attendings keeps emphasizing that the "conservative" option is to take the patient to the OR and see for yourself!
