    This advice feels a lot like something that should be stuck on a wall rather than posted as a comment in a conversational subreddit. It’s kind of like reminding people on posts about alcohol and partying not to drink and drive - unprompted. Reminders like this are great, but setting and context are important, otherwise you drive people away from the conversation.
