"it doesn't trigger people's alarms."
I skipped past the first part of the sentence, because I saw there was a "but" near the end, and supposedly that means the first part of the sentence doesn't count, but now the sentence doesn't make any sense to me.

It doesn't trigger people's alarms. In this case the advice isn't all that profound, the "but" is just sectioning off the first part of the sentence like a parenthetical.
