Yes. This is a really soft question. Sure, part of the reason that crime is down could possibly be due to stranger danger.
On the flip side, over-parenting has negative consequences on kids who have no freedom. I believe the same poll had said that most kids had never walked down a grocery store aisle by themselves and weren't allowed to play outside in front of their house w/o a parent.
In a work setting, beware of DIY Syndrome. Move away from an established tool, and now your on the hook for documentation, onboarding and maintenance. When the one dev who cares about that leaves the company, everything will fester. It never ends well.
