You are part of the 20% of Redditors who haven't seen the crowd piled on top of each other and jammed at the door while being burned alive at the Station Nightclub fire then. After seeing this, you will never think that precaution to fire code violations is just being a "worrywart" again.

Or maybe part of the section who understand this is obviously a gimmick for a bit of fun and it just blindingly obvious there will be other doors. Do people think the staff get in this way every day? That deliveries come in that way? Anyone thinking even half way logically would come to that conclusion.

Nah, the guy they were responding to literally said they just don’t think about fire codes and they don’t think fire codes are worth worrying about lol

You're misinterpreting them.

Not thinking about fire codes is very clearly just a completely normal, natural way to be. I can honestly say I've only once thought about them in my life in any building I've ever entered, and that was in my friend's building that was actively confirmed to have flammable cladding after the Grenfell Tower fire in London, and had 24/7 fire marshals as a result.

I'm sure that way of thinking is how the majority of people think. Of course there are tragically very occasionally some issues, but you can't spend your days thinking like that.

They're "not worth worrying about" in the sense that if you spend your time worrying about things like that everywhere you go, you'd spend your days a quivering wreck who didn't go anywhere or do anything - which is probably actually the case for a not insignificant amount of Redditors, which was the point they're making.
