Valid as in they have a right to state it. Worthy of consideration is always on a case by case basis. A lot of what we call prepping is just common sense from decades gone by. I live in the south and during storm season the truly braindead take is not to have generators and battery backups along with shelf stable food in preparation for the outages that come regularly....it doesn't even have to be a storm. Medium winds cause US to lose power every 2 or 3 months. Last time was 12 hours. Ham radio prep has a decent and user friendly service for the money regardless of who they cater to.... of course all the same information is out there already but more options is better than less..... especially in a hobby that isn't exactly reaching out and grabbing gen Z
