Well, duh, but what good will ten life do you if you have no cards? If your opponent attacks your side monster then they aren't attacking you, thus sparing you the damage a center monster would have stopped already. Besides, pressuring your opponent to attack a side monster is even better than having a center monster attacked since you not only get to attack with an item, but you don't have to worry about penetrate. Hopefully, there will be a couple of attack nulls in this world (other than pillar of fire) that will help further stop the damage taken.
