Ha, good point. Honestly if I ever did time travel, I’d probably just do a lot of observing but man ti would be tempting as hell to interact with people.

There was an episode of Star Trek TNG where Q takes Picard back 4.5 Billion years on Earth to show him the instant that life WOULD HAVE STARTED, if Picard didn’t just do what he just did.*

So even as an observer, don’t swat any bugs. The mosquito you kill might have been the one who gave Yellow Fever to the child who would have grown up to be The Next Hitler.
