WHAT THEY REALLY MEAN (PRAGMATIC SUBTEXT)
“Are you out of your mind? Fighting a drunk achieves nothing and only makes you look reckless.”
💡 Cultural Insight: Not Stooping to Low Standards (不跟小人/醉汉一般见识)

In Chinese pragmatic ethics, engaging in a brawl with a drunkard or rogue reflects badly on one's own character and maturity, as educated people are expected to exercise self-restraint.
