True, security and avoidance of trust is limiting compared to wide trust. But that is the way I live. Including, I understand bitcoin cryptography (not complex - several hours on youtube and rumble to gain knowledge), I can write software code, I cook my own food and verify suppliers of raw materials, I fly only those carriers and aircraft that I have studied statistics of and accept the risk, and I don't stand out from the crowd to make sure my presense does not impact the statistics. Most certainly, I ignore all public information.
Look at a cat - it is always running from cover to cover when not at home.
