That's fair. Few people dare to eat the edible Amanitas, although they're said to be quite tasty. If the deadly species didn't exist, they would probably be much more popular.

It isn't that hard to correctly ID Amanita rubescens and I've eaten it quite a few times. But if I'm the only one responsible for identifying it I wouldn't dare to eat it. With boletes I'm much more lenient and don't even know the species all of the time :D
