what i love about this phenomenon is that it kind of debunks these things, like yeah if these things were actually real (i mean quicksand is real but you're almost guaranteed to never encounter it) they WOULD be a big problem and thus their reality would be quite uncontroversial.

Kids just haven't really developed the concept of talking about things as if they're real despite not actually believing in them, so to them if people talk about something surely they have to think it's real!
