Your worries are nonsensical if they become excuses not to plant

Just as lung cancer is an excuse not to smoke, and not wanting to
drive off the cliff is an excuse for slowing down when driving
around a curve.

More like not wanting to drive anywhere ever, at any time, for any
reason, because some paranoid loon decided the plants were going to
eat his house.

Or like never eating food, ever, under any circumstance, because a
lot of what you eat could cause cancer. Or never drinking water
because you could drown even in a teaspoon of the stuff, & it is
often contaminated besides.

Or living in an aluminum "house" with no plants anywhere near it
because that's ever so much nicer than an old English mannerhouse
covered top to bottom in vines. And living in it all alone after
the wife moves to the mannerhouse & files for divorce.

People do find their own water level after all.

Some people think aluminum causes Alzheimers.
