[ QUOTE ]
The purpose of this rule is to preent an angle where someone says "you win" and then attempts to claim the pot if the other player takes that as a cencession and mucks his hand thinking he has won.

will the floor generally try to retrieve the cards from the muck to have a proper showdown?

Yes, if the cards are retrievable th ebest hand wins. Note: your milage may vary because modern cardrooms are known for having floorstaff that gets a rule half right.
