mp- i believe that spiritua sakanos are to be avoided more carefully than a child scraping a knee. that wil heal. if my kids wearing a helmet etc., he’ll be ok. but allowing children access to things that their yetzer hara is excited for is like putting a ten year old on a motorcycle without a helmet. the potential for long-lasting damage is greater; the possible outcome infinitely worse.
logician- even if they must happen, their din to happen is as a totza’ah of trying to do right and messing up. in essence they are an inevitable silver lining. they may be needed, the may happen no matter what, but its our job to try to avoid them and deal with them when we must. not embrace them.
