I deal with this stuff daily, so I think it's probably irrationally grinding my gears, but:

>> How do I build a campfire?

> Safety should always come first when starting a campfire.

Hold up: should I touch the fire? It doesn't say.

OK, there's perfectly legitimate advice in the output, like "have water nearby," but give me a break already. They're finetuning for commercial application. If I'm building business tools, I'm not putting kid gloves on it. I don't have time for a lecture every time I need an answer.

You can put a safety model in front of an unencumbered model if you want. We don't need to conflate the two.

This is just being prudent from a business perspective. Much to lose due to lawsuits. Look at the warnings on Q-Tips (which everybody in the US uses to dry their ears) which have warnings not to use in ears.
