If this is biggest danger of Antartica, book me a flight.
But then there is the obligation of preemptive apendectomy in order to go to Antarctica. And I try to avoid being stabed to life as I can possibly manage.
Also, afaik, it only applies to the doctors, because if someone else gets appendicitis, the doctor can remove it. And while a non-zero number of doctors have removed their own appendix, it’s not really medically recommended.

I think there might be a few other risks, like say, freezing to death.
If that is what it takes to have my devices hacked and installed with Linux by penguins, that is a risk I’m willing to take.
Pretty sure that requirement is slightly overblown, just don’t travel near the winter months and you’re likely fine.
