If it were indeed harmless, I might agree.

But I fully expect you to espouse the view that for you to waste
others' resources is fine because...well, I'm not entirely sure why.
Maybe because you have a excess of those resources at your disposal,
sufficient to tolerate the additional load if it were placed on you
instead, and have trouble understanding how anyone else could be less
fortunate?
