Especially with deadlift, back injuries are no fun at all.

Indeed.

Working up to a deadlift max doesn't take a lot of time, or a ton of sets. Like, 4-6 sets of 3-4 reps.

Longevity and injury-prevention is key to long-term gym vitality... but people don't usually appreciate this until they injure themselves somehow.

Seconding this.

1 heavy deadlift set usually means 15 minutes of warmups.
