I don't see that responsibilty leads to negligence of proper knowledge. The responsible person seeks the knowledge.

A person may want to stop smoking, but not which way is best for them to do so... by replacing the old habit with a new, or going cold-turkey, by going to a clinic, or what have you. Simply having the desire is not enough, secondly suppose they are comfortable in their choice (the "comfort zone", no matter how painful it may be), and may not fully realize they have a problem until something about it affects them in a startling way, awakening them to reality.
Responibilty is not about desire but about action.

Talking about this in terms of “bad news” or “bad judgment by business leaders” seems archaic. It’s like describing World War One as “a serious diplomatic concern.”
