Salt is not a health concern unless you specifically have a specific subset of cardiac health problems.
The vast, vast, vast majority of people do not have any reason to restrict salt intake.

47 percent of adults in the US suffer from hypertension: https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC12196499/
which is much more easily explained by a garbage diet, no preventative medicine so to speak of, obesity, work/family/financial stress. there is a lot of space between 2100 mg of sodium for a 3 piece chicken w/ fries, and ~150 mg to put a little life into a patty.
High salt increases likelihood of kidney stones
And high water increases likelihood of electrocution. And very high water increases likelihood of finding yourself with a wet T-shirt.
"Increases likelihood" is bullshit at best (manipulation more typically) without quantifying how much, and how much would it need to be to be remotely significant.
