[because she was criticizing it, really]

I don't mean dangerous only to those who go on the mission. I'm including the ones who stay behind. After an attack to the city, defenses weakened and everyone still feeling quite shaky, you will be taking part of the defense forces in order to walk right into a Witch lair.

Is that prudent?
