No one ever thinks anything is a problem - until it affects them personally. By then, it's too late. You should've cared about it when the subject was brought up. Or at least put a moment's thought into how it would play out if you ended up being affected by it.
We live in a beautiful bubble. But that bubble is thin, delicate, and can burst at any moment.
