It's very reasonable when you are looking for a better place to live. It's not very reasonable when you are in the situation of a bona fide refugee
The entire point of my comment was to sketch a situation in which it might be reasonable for a bona fide refugee. If you think it's an implausible situation or that my analysis of the situation is wrong, fair enough, but it's a bit off just to object on general principles as if I hadn't just given what is intended to be a counterexample.
If it's worth saying, but not worth its own post (even in Discussion), then it goes here.
