What kind of situation would allow a behind-the-back shot but not another option?

I play pretty often and in this situation I'll always do a behind-the-back if there's no bridge.

Basically, the ideal stick position is impossible to get in my regular stance, because the table is in the way of my body. Doing behind-the-back lets you get your stick in the right position, although I find it way harder to shoot well so I try to avoid it. I've had people accuse me of showboating for doing this but honestly that couldn't be farther from the truth - I have little confidence in my ability to shoot from this position.

Also, this thread rules.
