Why though? An ablebodied, childless adult without pets will very rarely ever have a random child or elderly people in their apartment.
The odds that you’d have someone at risk in your apartment, that you’d leave them unattended, and that they’d knock over an item of furniture is very long odds.
Because accidents happen?
Why do we need any form of safety precaution?
I don’t intend to crash my car. I still wear a seat belt.
I don’t intent to burn my house down. I still have a fire extinguisher.
I don’t intent to chainsaw my leg off. I still wear safety trousers.
I don’t intent my furniture to fall on me. I still secure it to the wall.
Unless that person is a little kid who loves to climb.
But the sooner he learns that lesson the better. So as long as it’s not your bowling ball collection on the top shelf, he’ll probably be alright even if the bookcase falls on him.
