No, it's a good one. What y'all mistakenly assumed was the idea of "every computer task is a life or death one" instead of considering the idea that there can be different levels of care for different levels of danger.
The reason many people in IT can't think outside of this idea is that they are (subconsciously) reluctant to open the gates for others. As a teacher in IT I quite literally deal with this every day.
