Gemma-4-E2B's safety filters make it unusable for emergencies

I’ve been testing Google’s Gemma-4-E2B-it as a local, offline resource for emergency preparedness. The idea was to have a lightweight model that could provide basic technical or medical info if the internet goes down. As the screenshots show, the safety filters are so aggressive that the model is functionally useless for these scenarios. It issues a "hard refusal" on almost everything: **- First Aid:** Refused to explain an emergency airway procedure, even when specified as a last resort. **- Water/Sanitation:** Refused to provide chemical ratios for purifying water. **- Maintenance:** Refused basic mechanical help with a self-defense tool. **- Food:** Refused instructions on how to process livestock. In a scenario like a war or a total grid collapse, "Contact emergency services" isn't a valid answer. It's disappointing that an offline model, designed for portability, is programmed to withhold basic survival information under the guise of safety.
