The reason to outline threats is the same as to outline [[visions]]:  It establishes clearly the limits of what you do and don't believe in, while still letting you think "out of the box", construct stories and useful [[conceptual metaphor]], etc..  And, it reveals what you are thinking about the extremes of good and bad, in case someone else reads it and says "hey wait a minute I *do* believe in that..." in which case they move it to [[best cases]] or [[worst cases]].  To do this in a disciplined way makes it really clear where our various ideas of reality converge and where they do not.
