Yep and that's my general rule. But there's a public health call here about whether it's better for the NHS if people keep cycling outside to stay fit or stay at home so they don't use precious NHS resources if they fall off.
Plus when you're doing sport it's different - e.g. snottier - to general life. Ideally there'd be some context specific advice but I appreciate they can't write advice for everything.
There has been some interesting discussion about this in recent Cycling Podcast episodes.
