Correct, but you cannot find what you are are not looking for.

The point of what I was saying is that I could see, and I would totally agree with, them not wanting to find out if this was the case, since it is better for society as a whole if they don't.

I am not convinced it happening like that, by any stretch of the imagination, but I can see the logic behind it happening.
