    I think the point is that there isn’t a good enough reason to put internet in a car that negates the risk of it.

    It is like adding lead to food. It’s a cheap sweetener with no calories. You can argue that cheap sweeteners aren’t important to you, but I don’t think you can argue that it isn’t a good reason. It just isn’t a good enough reason to negate the risk.

    Yes, if I said “hand me the scissors” it would just be one tool with two blades. I could also say “hand me a pair of scissors” to mean the same thing. Kind of like how “pair of pants” or “pair of glasses” mean just one of those items. For reference, I am from the US. Not sure if you meant English as the country or as the language. Either way, those usages are nonsense and I will happily keep using them.
