Can you explain how your risk profile will change if you don’t use the feature?

Barring temptation, the "feature" will hopefully not directly affect me. But since I am not an egoist, I tend to also think about other people...

Personally I think other people should be welded into their homes to protect them from all the dangers they might face outside. If they opened their doors they would be subjected to all manner of hazards and risks like crime or being hit by a bus, and I'm not an egoist so.. weld them in!

Very constructive comment, thanks you!

So, me liking the AppStore checks as an extra security measure leads to you suggesting people should be welded into their homes. That is totally sane and absolutely not childish.
