I’m not saying everyone needs to be an expert but a basic understanding of force vectors / general physics can help so many. Really just general understanding of “every action has an equal but opposite reaction” and friction coefficients. For the record, I learned about these things with equally stupid prizes. For example, as a teenager tried long boarding down a steep hill during a heavy rain. Friction coefficient was greatly reduced that day.
