more to the point, taking safety warnings as a personal insult is a red flag for literally dangerous narcissism
It certainly can be, but I have worked with people that absolutely use "safety" as a reason not to do anything, or as a reason to shoot down ideas from people they are competing against (different departments, possible promotions, etc). Like most things in life, this is not black or white, it's some shade of gray.
this is literally the exact same argument used by the CEO before he and several others died due to it
he was so insulted that experienced and qualified personnel were just trying to shoot down his idea
even if you believe this is the case in a given hypothetic, it's still not a valid reason to take it as an attack on you as a person, vs. a concern about a thing
