The latter fact is still true—the space is unsafe and should move to a state of safety—but the former is dangerous, because it makes safety a binary assumption that is based on factors of awareness we often do not have at the moment an incident takes place.
So on one hand, people are let off the hook for vigilance, and on the other, strategies of safety-making & reconciliation working as intended when an incident is reported are seen as still unsafe because the incident happened at all, as if it is in the space’s control.
