@nabeelqu As people become more afraid of competition, their language becomes more cryptic and protectionist. This becomes clear when you read something from a master full of confidence; they practically give you the keys to their knowledge because you still won't outrun them.

@Noahpinion One could argue that the Puritan mindset Americans often take is the whole reason this thought occurred. Otherwise we would just approach drugs as tools to use in a careful and informed way of bettering our lives. [No love for raising people with Salem witch trial mentalities.]
