It is almost always a mistake to base your views on what you should do in some far-fetched “what if” scenario. It is always a mistake to base your views on what other people should do that way.
You’ve thrown on some ratty jeans and an old t-shirt to pop down to the corner store for a coffee, and a friend expresses disapproval: “What if you were going on a job interview? Would you dress so slovenly?”
Probably not? Because I’m not going to a job interview; I’m going to the corner shop for some coffee. Treat the world as it is, and make your own plans.
And don’t worry about what other people do.
