I once had a greenhouse full of tropical plants. Someone told me it’s good I have the plants in a greenhouse, because without the greenhouse, the plants would all be eaten by squirrels. Well, it was winter time, and no squirrels were to be seen. So I took the plants out of the greenhouse. After all, no squirrels were around, right?
The plants died within a day.
So obviously, telling someone to put tropical plants in a greenhouse to protect them from squirrels is idiotic, even though it may may contain an element of sense. Because that’s not THE reason to put the plants in a greenhouse.
How’s that for an analogy.
