I would say it is quite prudent and rational, because you cannot be killed more than once
- lucideer 4y agoYou could trip on a curb outside your home, hit your head on the ground, and die. But you leave your home based on a rational assessment that that series of events is reasonably unlikely. Avoiding doing anything because it might kill you is always a function of the likelihood of that outcome - if you're assuming the likelihood is high, based on a sample size of 1, then no, that is neither prudent nor rational.
