It has some nice health benefits. Tricks your body into suvival mode.

I have easier ways to provoke a fight or flight response from my brain, such as receiving a phone call from an unknown number, or having to schedule an appointment in advance

Surprise: it's an unknown charge on your credit card. You'll have to call support and get a new card issued! Oooooo

Jokes on you, I can disable the old card and order the new one though the mobile app now! Which happened at least once already. Welcome to the future, where we automate away the human contact and I'm all for it

Cool thing is you can train your flight or fight response with things like cold plunges to be more useful. Cold showers might be a way to reduce your unneeded response to harmless things like phone calls.
