This really makes no sense.
Take rebreather diving. It can be done very safely. Yet if joe/jane OW diver strapped one on they would be at high risk.
We as a society have cars. Yet if a 5 year old got in one and tried to drive they would be at high risk.
People need to understand what they are trained for and what they are not. That is a fundamental part of society. Otherwise we would all be reduced to the actions only the least capable are able to handle.
You might be right that we shouldnt protect people, everybody can make up his own mind. True, nobody is blocking anybody from doing anything. But by giving different opinions we show different sides of the coin to whoever is reading.
However your rebreather analogy is off.. its much easier for some bozo to do a solo dive without thinking things through after reading this board..than it is for the same bozo to get its hands (without instruction or a instructor nearby) on a breather.
