Unfortunately, I’ve known enough contrarian weirdos to see how that type of logic might make more sense (to them). “Why are you stressing about this? Can’t you just take those old clothes to Goodwill or throw them away?” “Well, first I need to buy 30 cases of Coke and then - to make room in the car - I need to visit the park back in Indiana to scatter our dog’s ashes.” Knowing that it’s probably just illogical all the way down, I could believe either scenario.
