Ok, I have an experiment for you. Go touch some really hot chili peppers, then wash you hands. With soap. Three times, if you like. Then rub your eyes. Then tell me that felt absolutely fine. Go ahead, I’ll wait.
I made a dish with habenaro in it, and quite a few. Washed my hands a few times during the cooking process after I finished handling the peppers. Then I went to the bathroom and had a rude awakening.

I saw a vid from Gordon Ramsey that using freshly squeezed limes to rinse your hands works against the spicy.
