Is the irs more likely to audit the long form over the short?

AND if they audit you, can you just say, let's forget the deductions and refile with the standard deduction. If they question any of the deductions, say you can't find all the receipts (even though they are legit) Seems like a simple solution to me. Would they let you do that? Ya think?
