Improving safety is the never-ending cry of a nanny state. The world is already spectacularly safe. Most of the things that used to eat us are so long dead that we have forgotten to be cautious in the wilderness.

And yeah, after seeing idiot losers trashing places like Yellowstone, I am absolutely fine when they get themselves killed in the middle of nowhere. I’m happier if they get rescued and learn from the experience, but we don’t need to toy with Kessler Syndrome to incrementally improve their odds.
