My context:

Person A says 1 does of product A is Amount X.

What I'm saying is: That's not entirely relevant if we don't know how many doses people actually get.

I agree about irrational, among other things.

True. But then if we count up the reasonable upper bound of possible doses you could get, like "several thousands times a day times amount X", and it still adds up to "not harmful", should we keep being distressed about it?

See, I'm totally okay with that explanation then. If the upper bound is insignificant, then I see no reason to worry about the health aspects.
