Or they have been missing mechanics and I'm not confident they won't continue to miss them. But I'm generally pretty chill even if they get a vuln here and there so long as it's not putting undue strain on my ability to maintain support for the entire party.
What I've said before is "If you stand in the bad, I will assume you have a plan to get to safety in time. If you do not do so, and thus die, I will assume your timing was off. If you stand in the same bad and die again, I will begin to consider the possibility that I am your plan to get to safety, and may act accordingly."

(Though in all honesty, I tend to go a lot longer than that before I start to ponder Rescue as a viable option for getting someone through mechanics.)
