Sometimes you don't exactly know how bad an idea is until you try it. Only then, after fully manifesting the explosive consequences of gas station egg salad do you have the body of research to say without question that "food poisoning is definitely bad. I'm not doing that again."
But did you really need to go through a week of gastrointestinal apocalypse in order to learn that? Or could you have just listened when a hundred people before you told you not to? At a certain point it's better to just take people at their word.
That's why it's important to listen to people who have made these grievous errors, because making them all yourself would only yield similar results, and frankly there's not enough time in the day to learn about a new way to be miserable. So take heed when someone says "I'm never going to do that again."
