    …then we forget why we had those protections…

    … because of remembering why we had other protections which were torn down to make these protections …

    That’s how this works. You go to God, get hit by lightning a few times, learn not to approach that guy, then by not approaching that guy get kinda close to Satan, get boiled in oil for some time by bald imps, run away, and at some point forget that there’s another danger, et cetera ad infinitum.
