Consider: I may also try and make/buy safer tools so I don't ever have to use them again at some point in the future. I may hire someone else (China!) to do the work.

A lack of trust does not mean an immediate cessation of use, but it does meaningfully change the relationship.

"I use x" is not evidence of "I trust x". Sometimes it's evidence of "I have no choice but to use x for now".

If you put in your notice at a job, and they desperately double your salary to keep you, do you trust that they're happy to keep paying that, or do you reasonably assume they're probably gonna start interviewing for a cheaper replacement?

Falsely conflating usage with trust is a goalpost move.

If you'd posted "people still trade with the US", I'd have heartily agreed. But that wasn't the question.
