If you failed to get the TD, and then you went 4-and-out, why are you so confident that you could have gotten into the endzone twice just to tie if you're not confident that you can't get 1 TD later?

Once again the time left at that point is a big factor in the decision. It's halfway through the 4th and let's say they kick the FG. There is no guarantee you'll have enough time to go most of the field for a winning TD or even getting the ball back at all. If they get the TD with or without the 2pt conversion, they have a much better chance to get into FG range to win assuming they got the ball back which they did but blew it.
