:You only have to select an active defense if you are attacked.
This seems to imply you HAVE TO select one, but that's not true. A character can always opt not to defend at all, and that's the ONLY option if using All-Out Attack or hit by a surprise shot.
Also this doesn't seem to say anything about the attack actually hitting, perhaps allowing selection even on a miss.
