Yeah I'm not that concerned about debris either as others have mentioned l2 is somewhat unstable hence the telescope bringing fuel for station keeping albeit it has a higher chance just due to the nature of its large size but that's nothing compared to the danger if it was in low earth orbit.
In addition, I like to start from a place of pessimism in order to be pleasantly surprised at the end. It did survive launch and the complicated deployment which were the largest risks (I did have a pretty vivid dream of the rocket blowing up at launch a month before the successful launch) however, seeing many fist bumping on the internet like it is a done deal has me worried that they are putting a massive jinx on it.
