Precisely It's ironic that I'm apparently classed as illogical for pointing out that people routinely take some manner of safety measures in certain activities but not others, and arguing that's not inherently bad or some sort of mental defect or character flaw. It's merely people seeking some added protection some of the time. Would it be better if they wore helmets 24/7 or never wore one for anything? A view that insists on a rigid, universal dichotomy isn't always helpful or practical.
