Why does it matter when others play the “wrong” move at a blackjack table

Question

The odds of the other person getting a card they want doesn’t necessarily change, so why does it effect anybody when a player doesn’t play by the chart

Answer 1

It doesn’t matter because no one knows what card is coming. All you do is increase the house edge over the long run by not playing basic strategy.

But gamblers will always say “you’ve taken the dealer bust card” and conveniently forget when that “wrong” move actually helps them.
