If someone invaded New Jersey would you withdraw to Pennsylvania?
Before the Siege of Gondor, no enemy has ever stepped foot inside Minas Tirith. That should count against their withdrawal.
As for the strategic implications of such a move, I think you've said much already. I can't think of anything to add yet.
