You have now switched the debate terms to accidents and “accidents”. But putting quotation marks around the word does not change its meaning. So, you are now saying that “accidents” can be prevented but accidents cannot be prevented. Is that public school logic or public school grammar?

So tripping over an electrical cord when someone saw it on the stairs and did not remove it is not an accident. Ok. Then why did you say not removing the electrical cord could cause an accident? Read your own reply. You said not removing the cord could cause an accident or did you mean “accident”?

By your logic not removing the cord could cause someone to trip. This trip is not an accident because it could have been prevented.

Your same logic also means that if the cord is removed then a trip does not occur. But the trip had it occurred by your own words would not have been an accident. So therefore removing the cord does not prevent an accident but it does keep a trip from occuring.
