I hope you're kidding. Getting poked in the eye won't kill you either but FIRST still demands eye protection in the pits and on the field. A situation does not have to be life threatening to be a safety hazard.
You must have never gotten a good static shock. They can easily be powerful enough to cause pain in your elbow or shoulder that can last several hours or even a day or two. Now sure, this is mostly just annoying and nothing permanent, but it's definitely something I want to avoid in the future if possible.
