No that wasn't my point. My point is that is the type of thing that some people who disagree might say. Such as spencer West, who I believe is the guy who I saw speak at a conference. But there are too many in google results to be sure which one it was. And it might have been kilamanjaro! Not everest. I saw him speak almost 20 years ago so the name and details grow fuzzy.
The point is, for someone with a disadvantage, giving up is not the best medicine.
Yeah but you're going to eat something right? So it's probably fine.
