This is a really elegant solution for the guy who is willing to die for a set of beliefs if it really matters, but sees it as a last resort. I know I had a heroic knight type character, and I had really ummed and arred about whether to take Extreme Fanaticism for him. This way he can think clearly about whether this is really a time where giving his life would serve his cause, but when it really matters, he can commit to not budging an inch.
Essentially it would allow him to be reasonable enough to still be heroic, and still show absolute resolve for things he would care about.
