You're going have to defend your actions either way. Welcome to real life in lawyer land.

In any state that would charge you, you'd be looking at attempted murder, not A&B. And if you got off there and weren't already broke and relying on a public defender by then, you'd still be bankrupted by the civil suit you'd face from the bad guy you let live. We even have a law in AZ barring such lawsuits where use of force was justified. And they still happen and bankrupt the good guys. Happens all the time.
