Could make the argument that you should go for the rebound regardless. Even the bad offensive rebounding teams see large jumps in OREB% from sending more without much difference in transition shots given up.
The argument that offensive rebounding hurts transition defense is mostly vibes related and not supported by data. There's a stronger case to be made that the best transition defense is a strong offensive rebounding focus.
