But how does this in practice work? Like you must think the possibility of this sort of thing happening even to randomise it. And there...

This is exactly my argument as well. The meaningful choice isn't whether the PCs come across the ogre, rather it's how they choose to...

I think there is a pretty big chicken-egg issue here. Most people don't become adventurers. The ones that do? Generally it's because...
