I have some very imporant processes that can by no means be killed. For example, PostgreSQL. The thing is that it's improssible to predict exact upper memory limit needed for it, and, on the other hand, the situtaion when it's being killed regullary is completely abnormal. The normal situation is when OOM occurs, forked postgres processes cannot obtain memory fragments - in these cases Postgres says "out of memory" to the _new_ sessions, while _old_ sessions still work and database is alive.
Shortly, I do not want to have even miserable probability of killing of critical processes in the system.
