I'm mildly uncomfortable with this, as I don't think it's a primary goal, and it's worded in a pretty strong fashion. However I'm good with having a scenario that is shows how one person wants to help another make the right trust decisions by helping them to be in a context that reduces them (whether it's child or elder), and this one does that. So since there's been no push back, I'm good with it (but if anyone wants to make it a tad less gut wrenching, I'd support that).
