This type of wisdom only comes with being burnt and cynical. We shouldn't require that of our users.

Does it? Nobody considers it "cynical" to not give the pizza guy the key to your house.
The pizza boy doesn't ask for your home keys it EVERY TIME he brings you a pizza.

Yet LinkedIn goes far beyond that. LinkedIn is clearly engaging in "dark ui patterns", hoping to trick you into giving those keys (and using them too!) when you are not mindfull.
