> Maybe other people have perspectives

Yeah, no. The whole "every perspective has some validity" thing won't really apply to most safety/security issues. The most charitable thing to say here is that the workflow is completely broken. Less charitable but also valid is pointing out that it's actively harmful, and deliberate. I would be really surprised if this hadn't ever caused serious consequences whether a whistle blower was fired, an abused spouse got extra abused, or an informant was killed. If you think you've got a "valid perspective" that prioritizes mere user-discovery over user-safety, then you should not be attempting work that's close to safety and security, full stop.

Others are equally confident in their beliefs. By your reasoning, why should they listen to you?

> Yeah, no.

Nobody reads past this part. It reflects a lack of judgment, and also who wants to talk to someone in this context?

Welcome to shop class. Safety goggles are required here, primarily for eye-safety but that said, all use-cases are equally valid. If you feel they clash with your style then feel free to leave them around your neck while operating the machinery.

Notice that if you go this route you get no additional safety, and actually introduced an extra hazard.. don't lean in or your goggles get caught in the machine and drag your neck closer to whirling blades! Sorry if it's rude, but there's no nice way to say that this is bad to do and even worse to advocate for. If you don't get it, ok, go be as unsafe as you want when it's your ass on the line. No need to take the next step towards also trying to kill safety culture.
