please: why do people warn you about the danger of going into the ocean with a fresh tattoo, but not so much with other open wounds/scratches? Is there actually higher risk of infection with a healing tattoo vs a normal cut?

A scratch is very common. People expect you know to take care of it, and they don’t need to tell you. A tattoo is quite special, and so you might not know all the best practices. You would be surprised how many times people with fresh tattoos will get sunburn etc.
