The counterargument is that blowing up a train or stealing a truck usually doesn't poison the local area for generations. Higher risks means some consideration is due. If the stakes are higher but the probability is the same, the expected value is still higher.
I for one don't want to live in a hellscape pockmarked by miniature exclusion zones.
