I guess I've played with the same group of players for a long time. We all trust each other enough to know we have each other's fun in mind.I strongly disagree that players only like playing their PCs when they are at full strength. That goes completely against my experience as both a GM and a player. Players like having choices. One such choice is do we press on in a depleted state, or rest/ withdraw with the understanding this gives the bad guys time to regroup/flee or when treasure seeking withdrawing/resting might allow someone else to get there first. Well sure, there has to be trust, especially in a system like 5e where the DM holds such a large power differential.  That's essential.</blockquote>
