Is this just me?
Yeah, I think so. What I've seen so far is people fall (made an error) and get right back on to improve on those falls regardless if it's a motorcycling, bicycling, roller skating, skiing, skateboarding, horse riding, driving, etc.
Sounded like you had a slow speed high side. However, you were able to get back on the bike and passed the course so not sure why you are having those thoughts. Now if you fell, you went home without passing the course, I can see...
