Why do some people assume one can escape Inf. Tsukoyomi by not gazing at the moon?

There are those who believe that simply not looking at the moon would enable someone to avoid the Mugen Tsukoyomi, I think that idea is preposterous, for one thing, why didn't Shikaku or the alliance ordered all civilians and ninjas who were not on the battlefield to hide in caves or underground to avoid being under the Mugen, another reason why I think it's absurd is because something as powerful as Mugen Tsukoyomi could simply be avoided by bowing down your head and avoid gazing at the sky.

Perfect thread once again

Who ever said that???
Lol never heard it really but it's ridiculous.
We already seen by Itachi that you don't have to make eye contact to be affected by tsukoyomi.

Someone said that wearing 3-D shades might work.

lol! but seriously speaking it's a glaring military logistic blunder if Shukaku actually didn't devise a backup plan and made the civilians and non-participating shinobis hide in caves or underground dwellings to avoid Mugen Tsukoyomi, it's only rational then to conclude that the simple avoidance of the moon would not deter its' intended effect which is Mugen Tsukoyomi.

Thought this was pretty obvious since light reflects off the moon all the time, ever heard of moonlight?

Well for one thing without the sun, there would be no light reflected on the moon so what happens then to moonlight when it's daytime? second the illuminance lux of objects have to be taken into account, could lux of the moon bypass solid matter like gravel or stone? no, ergo, why didn't Sukaku and co. order a safety evacuation procedure in the case of the successful casting of Mugen Tsukoyomi? it's because it's useless.

What? Do you know how light works? Light must reflect off the moon at night time or we wouldn't be able to see it, the moonlight in daytime is still there but a lot weaker, even if it was non existent genjutsu isn't broken when the light stops "coming", genjutsu is an injection of chakra which disrupts the natural flow

The end part of your post I didn't talk about at all, I didn't say hiding in caves wouldn't work so I have no idea where you pulled that from

I'm arguing about the intensity of luminous emittance if you were actually paying attention, I was simply stating a scientific fact that the luminescence of the moon is insufficient to bypass solid matter whether it's night time or day time.

Of course I can't, but Oro can ;)

Again I don't think you quite understand what I'm saying.. I agree with what you've said, about it not being able to bypass solid matter, I only argued the bold parts; by saying there is always moon light and that you didn't know how light worked because you thought there was no light coming off the moon. {Both bold parts}

I agree, I just didn't agree with exactly what you said in one instance, I never disagreed about light not being able to bypass solid matter or the Shukaku plans thing, you just imagined that it seems

Then what is your point of contention in relation to the topic? if you are arguing about physics and then I agree I had a mental slip about the moonlight at daytime because I was thinking about the luminous intensity of the moon in relation to Mugen Tsukoyomi, but like I said in my previous posts it's not good to interject real life physics with fictional universe laws. ;)
