Technically, I agree it was "don't sabotage yourself". (EDIT: For a non-player of MtG.)

But writing "don't sabotage yourself" just wouldn't have the same impact.

I care about the impact. I would rather spend my time reading one article that makes an impact, than hundreds of articles that don't -- even if they contain more information (that I will quickly forget). I am just a human, and I need to take it into account when optimizing for myself.
