But low incidence / high impact things (like cutting off your hand with a buzzsaw) need a bit of regulation. We used to, for the most part accept that such things would happen, and not try too hard to prevent them when the impact was mostly limited to the person making the poor decision leading to the accident. I'm not sure that's such a bad thing; regulations shift the responsibility and costs away from the person actually doing the potentially dangerous thing on to the organization as a whole. The whole process slows down as a result. I'm not against regulations or some equivalent (such as best practices plus liability) in situations where someone being stupid puts many people or the public at large at risk, but don't tell me I need certification to use a buzzsaw. I learned to use one when I was 12.
