True, we are not obligated to protect gainst minor risks.

That said, the establishment of hekhsheirim did create something of a
Catch 22 -- by their very existence far more things are efshar levareir
and therefore require birur, thus demanding we use said hekhsheirim.

The Catch 22: we need them primarily because they exist already.
