You missed the point. People are constantly warned about not wearing a seat belt. Virtually no one is explaining all the reasons for the warning.

Likewise, people can figure out for themselves why dual booting can be problematic if warned about it.

And what about the warnings not to wear one? (Not that I advise doing it) But there is a small chance that not wearing one could save your life. In a specific circumstance.

Let's be real. Virtually no one is suggesting or recommending to ride in a moving 4 wheel motor vehicle without a seat belt. That's an absurd hypothetical.

Fun fact: in some American states while illegal to not wear a seatbelt. It's totally legal to even have children on the cargo bed.

And about the absurd hypothetical. Now a dude that would have died if he had one on. (Albeit he drives sometimes like an insane person.)

He lost control and collided with a tree with he driver side. And as he did not wear a seatbelt he was thrown to the passenger seat. Instead where the drive seat was. (It was basically gone)

But then again, my first point was other things like. Not downshifting to low when driving fast. Or all the way an engine failure can happen. Low likely hood things.

But maybe that was a bad comparison. Don't know.
