Forgive me; but, you say you disagree with the sentiment, but you disagree with it on the bounds that the thing you're disagreeing with is unlikely to happen. That doesn't change the damage that could/would happen if the unfortunate thing DID happen; and that shouldn't cause you to disagree with the sentiment, from my understanding. Perhaps I'm understanding you incorrectly?
I read what you said as:
* Taking A away after giving A is worse than never giving A in the first place.
* People giving A are probably not in a position to lose A.
* Therefore, I disagree that losing A would be a bad thing.
