Well, 'Forcing attacks' normally cannot hit either, because one only uses them against targets who can semi-reliably dodge a first attack, and Forcing Attacks sacrifice probability to hit with the first attack in a chain in order to decrease probability of Dodge against a second or third. Feints don't normally consume Blocks/Parries, but a Feint that is Victorious By Four is effectively as good as consuming one AD, even better.
So the big difference is spending ammo.
