I don't think 0 is unrealistic because I don't think they meant 0 mathematically, they meant 0 as when humans use the word to describe risk, which is near zero mathematically. I think it's a mistake to try to quantify this, as you suggest. That's not how humans work. I can't tell you what percentage, to two significant places, of risk I am willing to engage in for any given well-defined reward.

I 100% agree. I mentioned that in my first post.
But then we recognize our emotional responses and even superstitions and we think about it and sometimes by doing so improve our lives.
In the end of course this is OP's call to approach this how they wish.
