It's not legal advice. People can just be wrong and you can tell them you think that without coming off as a jerk.

That wasn't a statement towards the individual. That was a statement of what could befall someone who took their advice.

No, I don't think that's true - it's just a catastrophizing rationalization for reflexive dickishness. We all suffer from reflexive dickishness so of course it happens and it's not that big of a deal but trying to pass it off as some sort of virtue is a mistake.
