Yes it can be interesing analysing an analyst - that we know more than they do can be reassuring.

For me I know I came to the very edge of things and to stay away from that edge not only do I need some internal coping skills, but I need to learn to trust others, otherwise I fear my fate is sealed. So there would not be an advantage to me of having a T fail me - I think that would be detrimental.

However there is absoutely nothing wrong with being independent, distant from society and relationships - think of hermits - (A hermit is a person who lives, to some degree, in seclusion from society).
