Assuming an intersection, wouldn't it be better to be rear-ended hard than having a vehicle slam into the driver's side door?

Yep, which is why I think it depends on what's in front of you. A human probably doesn't have enough time to analyze the situation and determine whether or not they could do better than holding down the brake. A computer can probably do better in some situations.
