Well, if you think 'fumble' means 'leave yourself open to the enemy', then yes, both of you fumbling is LESS hazardous than only one, since neither score a hit. However, think of some physical situations: two people fighting on a rope bridge. Two people playing chicken with a charging Triceratops. Two people challenging each other to a drinking contest. In these cases, both could easily be completely defeated and left helpless and possibly dying...
