Sounds like a possible psychological issue. This might lead to a problem for society. We might want to get you some preventive treatment for that before you have a chance of harming someone. Do you think prison might work well here?

I advocate medical treatment for addiction, though of course I am joking here.

I assume we were discussing this yesterday, after the last HN restore point?

Yes, discussing yesterday, exactly. I missed that discussion when it was gone.

The point is the same whether you were joking about addiction or not. Preemptive forced action based on subjective reason like labeling makes for unwarranted control of human beings by other human beings or systems. I can just imagine a set of RAS checkboxes similar to stop and frisk for mental illness and homelessness. None of these are ok and the fact that we are supporting systems like this means we are headed backwards instead of forwards.

Harming others is a separate issue and is always a problem.
