Reply #45: I see it as similar to setting someone's sofa on fire...

If you go over to someone's house and do something really stupid that sets their sofa on fire, you don't just say "Oops, it's time for me to leave," and walk away and leave your host to try and put it out on his own before it burns down his house. You at least try to help them get the fire under control.
