In lower elos, you can be 100% sure that your opponent will screw up. Even if they don't, you must give one last stand against your opponent. If you fail than you can resign as there is nothing you can do. Here is a VERY WEIRD game of my trash 800 elo that shows this:
I am easily losing, but I give multiple mate threats that black has to respond to.
and because you might resign if they take to long cuz u rage quit
yeah maybe
