Yeah, I am fully against designing things to be easiest for the lowest common denominator. Add information to educate people, offer guides and other resources, but if someone takes the rope of freedom and ends up wrapping it around their own neck, that's on them. We don't need to redesign ropes or ban them so that they can't be wrapped around necks.
