It does matter, because it can affect your whole life. If tomorrow I learn that apples cause cancer and eating plastic is good for my stomach I’ll change my habits and quickly have some issues ;)

Of course there are.
But just because someone told you that, doesn't mean you need to operate by that? You can still have your own understanding, follow your own way :) The context here was that it's somehow "dangerous" as in information can "pollute" your brain, just because you read it.
I gave an example about something easy to verify, but things become harder about niche things where it’s not easy to just search on Google to check.
