That defensiveness is definitely a part of it. And like... those are risks, but not the ones that are actually top of my mind when it comes to travel. "Stranded" or "something went wrong with my reservation" or "fuck, critical tech failure and I no longer have my phone, and am in a strange place, fuck" or "well, when I planned this week I didn't know xyz weather event would hit" are all much more present concerns.
