Good point, but I wonder if some of the attitudinal jets could be employed to push it upright, assuming there's any fuel left (and power).

Neat idea, I'm not sure how much force those jets produce, maybe it could be enough? It might be risky to fire up jets after a botched landing though. If the nozzle has any material in it I'd be worried about blowing a hole in the lander!
