There are at least two categories of situation where honest people of good will can’t just plan ahead avoid them.
1. Someone is stressed to the point of wanting to use an X, red card, etc, and genuinely didn’t know that kind of thing would hit them so hard.
2. Someone gets that sort of reaction to some instances of a thing but isn’t bothered at all by others, and their danger zone has complicated boundaries. I’m this way with head trauma, because when I was in college, one of my brothers spent months in brain injury rehab after a car accident. Certain of the sights I saw there on visits to him became PTSD triggers for me. In general it’s fine now - Cronenberg, Lynch, and Fincher are among my favorite directors. But when it hits me, man ii it mad. And I cannot give you (or myself) enough examples and descriptions to protect against the bad stuff and let the safe pass freely.
So a bunch of people benefit greatly from tools that let them react as needed in the moment no matter what’s done on before.
