You are not copping out. You are making a decision based on the circumstances.

You'd be amazed how many students I have who never get their acts together to do that. I have several this year who worked out early in the course that withdrawal was the only sensible option, announced a clear intention of doing that, stopped sending me assignments, but just... haven't actually withdrawn. Now joined by some for whom life threw a spanner in the works at a later stage. It seems a pointless way to end up with a 'fail' on their record, but it's surprising how many people just let things drift until the exam date.
