I still don't think an obsession with always being ready for any photographic situation is a healthy one, though. Just make the photographs you want to make and don't sweat what you might miss.
Didn't mean to offend.

Never took offense, just pointing out there are differences and different ideas in photography. Also, it's not an obsession, have no idea what makes you think that. It's a hobby, something I do for fun.
