I absolutely does occur and we are an increasingly lonely society to the point it is a serious health concern. There are people with no meaningful social contact and for one reason or another the inability to get it.
What I said does not occur is finding oneself in a situation where someone is about to die and the only available food that can save their life is junk food.
In the analogous situation, someone is just about to die of loneliness and the only available loneliness-solver is chatbots – also something that does not occur.
Yes, in both of these highly improbable situations, saving the life comes above long term health considerations. But that is not a good point.
