“Avoid generic tangents” is up to interpretation. Incidentally, so is “don’t be curmudgeonly”

Also Medicare does not cover long-term care, so if someone gets sick and develops the need for it, they’re paying out of pocket. It is a possibility that a lot of people plan for financially, which is reasonably in the realm of relevance here.

What’s not really relevant here are your personal opinions on what medical costs are or are not generally worth planning for financially.
