Indeed. The advantage of BnZ is that, if done properly, can be done again and again.
The problem is that after a few passes, the pilot tends to get inpatient and that's when the mistakes happen. This is what you should try to force, mistakes, and is done by, as Snapper says, being unpredictable.
Note that every correction in trajectory a BnZ'er makes, implies loss of energy. If the BnZ'er looses that advantage, then the spits and hurris are in control of the fight.
