Can the active player choose to take a misthrow instead of making a legal mark?
The English rules make both steps optional, but the misthrow wording does not say what skipping costs.

Yes. Both marking steps are optional, so the active player is never forced to cross a number. If they cross nothing in either step, they must mark a misthrow (-5), which can be better than ruining a row with a poor mark.
