Carissa is pretty sure that 'you disrespect people if you do things that affect them without specifically asking first if they wanted that, even if it was good for them' defines literally all human activity as disrespectful. Presumably everyone doesn't go around quitting all their jobs all the time and rebelling against all their governments all the time on the grounds that people affected them without asking first.

Or who knows! Maybe eighty percent of the population of this world wanders off into the wilderness to starve to death because people kept disrespecting them by sweeping their streets without asking. Not having gods seems like the kind of thing that could cause a general breakdown of sanity. 

But it doesn't seem worth having that argument right now. "Well, I think I haven't affected anyone without asking, because I've mostly stayed in the Rope Trick."

But it doesn't seem worth having that argument right now. "Well, I think I haven't affected anyone without asking, because I've mostly stayed in the Rope Trick. - does this apply to putting out the fire without asking, are we going to have to ask everyone if they personally want the fire put out or risk them being forever angry we disrespected them by not asking first?"
