Getting killed by a paradox circuit is something that only catches out fairly advanced robbers. Most of the newbie robbers usually don't even have wirecutters, and even if they did they don't even try to cut themselves out when caught out the by the old electric floor/cat on a button trap.  I'd say most new players die to the dancing dog triggering an electric floor trap, it just doesn't seem to occur to them that an animal can follow you while out of sight. I think a tutorial that teaches you how to escape some of the more common traps would help a lot to keep new players.  I would never have figured out half the stuff if I hadn't read the wiki and most of these forums.

You tried to rob my house, I feel famous now. Your name was Oliver William Allen, you were worth a 8600 bounty, plus all the tools you brought in. You spent quite a while scouting, I think checking if there was a clock, and then you came in with all your tools and died right at the entrance. Hope your house wasn't too valuable, but I guess it probably was.

This game does make you feel guilty when people die, I've robbed 3 people with mostly concrete houses worth $25k and then afterwards one of them came in my house and hung themselves sad
