Good on you to bring this stuff up.
People put their inflatable mats in sun, or in tent in sun, and they over inflate and ballooning causing issues.
They take em out and sit lie on thorns or rocks or pointy sticksOr set tents up without checking and clearing stuff
so yes, there's a personal responsibility here too, and sometimes solid foam mats are the way to go, if they don't take precautions and or if the conditions are bad, then it's probably wiser going solid foam.
When I first started touring (over 36 years ago) I used a foam pad, I could sleep on it. Fast forward 36 years and now I can't get comfortable on a foam pad, plus honestly the take up a lot of space.
