Spot on; unfortunately our little lizard brains don't do so well with rational discrimination between threat levels. It's not like people enjoy being anxious and borderline paranoid all the time. If they thought about it, they'd realize it was an unpleasant feeling that was shading their life with negativity. But it's mostly unconscious, unnoticed, a natural reaction. Like a constantly whirring fan that you don't hear anymore, until it turns off and you realize how annoying it was.
