As I have already seen stated in this thread, an onside kick should be difficult to pull off. It's almost as if some think a team actually deserves to get the ball back without giving it back to the other team. I'd suggest not getting beat the first 58 minutes of the game and putting yourself in such a position, but that's antiquated thinking I suppose.
So you think a 4 and 15 on your own side of the field is a gimmie? If you fail the other team has the ball in better field position then if they get the onside kick.
And to your other point about getting the ball back. You already have it either way. Are you not in possession of the ball when you're kicking? And if you get the ball on back then you never gave it up to begin with as the other team never got it back.
It's not that your thinking is antiquated as much as you're not really giving this any thought.
