Sure, but it might change how motivated you are to address threats that don't meet your everyday minima. Nobody worries about being eaten by a bear in manhattan because it's not very likely - you're much more likely to get hit by a car, or eaten by your neighbor even. So you see people preparing against those threats, and not devoting any time to the bears-in-manhattan threat vector. This seems rational to me.
