Your "good idea" is stupid.
Offering justification puts you in a position of weakness as if you owe everyone an explanation for your misconduct.
It empowers others to reject your excuses.
At that point, you've already lost the debate.
Instead, maintain your power over the interaction by just saying, "Yes".
You owe them nothing.
