I have drop flag on f3 ^^ Much closer to my hand than backspace
I was playing a match the other day when I was killed a few metres away from the flag. Nobody touched the flag. Although I was somewhat appreciative as it let me get my score, it was a tense moment when I was dead and nobody was making an attempt to get the flag. It would be a waste of the effort required to get the flag and run back to base, only to lose the score because my team didn't pick it up.
In a situation like this (slightly further away from the base, but essentially the same as the one in your pic) it only takes one sneaky RVSF player to run up the middle and touch the flag. Don't waste the flag.
Also, what OpenSource said.
