Does it matter? Is Reddit not a free-for-all? It’s a valid warning. Especially if this is OP’s first tattoo. It’s not like they’re getting a little sticky tattoo from the fruit loops box. A real tattoo is permanent, so it’s not something you want to rush. Since some people are older and more experienced, I think they have the right to give their honest opinion. OP can take it or leave it. What do you care?
