Sometimes a few enemies can be very useful, developmental wise. They
can force you to face up to issues that you'd avoid or not bother
looking at if left up to yourself. This is probably more true the
younger you are though. At a certain age, most arguments become banal
repititions with nothing to gain from them, and most would be enemies
lack enough skill and insight to be worth the bother of cultivating
them.
