It absolutely is an option. And often it is the best option. It's called irimi. Ueshiba's aikido was based on irimi.

Nishio, arguably one of the most studied and broadly experienced martial artisis of the 20th century, entered into the attack with frightening frequency in his curriculum.
And it all depends on the timing and approach.

Sure, and all my favorite techniques in tanto randori involve irimi (please see the gif for one of my favorites)- just not running onto the knife. Taisabaki can be quite penetrating but it does avoid the thrust.
