You probably made an account here for a number of reason, and there are probably thousands of things that Smashboards offers that you probably didn't ask for either. Quit sounding so pretentious.
Except that injuries like carpel tunnel literally happen to a variety of gamers and office workers, including non-smashers, due to ignorance of working too long or not doing proper stretches? It's not hard to get, and if people aren't told what their limits are and how to prevent it, of course its going to happen. Knowledge is better than ignorance, and there's no reason not to talk about it, especially because it's relevant.
Also, please convince me that Sakurai got carpel tunnel while making Smash because he was doing something stupid too.
The best way to prevent injuries like carpel tunnel is to doing specific stretches before playing or doing things that I'd wager most smashers don't do on a regular basis if at all, and before you start feeling any indications that your hand is damaged in the first place. It's easy to damage your hand (just like any other part of your body), so writing articles stating ways to prevent and minimize those chances do much more good than harm.
This one of the most self-entitled posts I've ever seen on this site.
