The U of Chicago has not bothered to understand what trigger warnings actually are, as opposed to what people claim they are.

Doesn't matter. Trigger warnings of any kind are infantile.

Do you have any background in psychology, or are you merely voicing an opinion based on media accounts of what trigger warnings are?
-
as said by notorious psychiatrists and psychologists, if content triggers you, you need better treatment, not avoidance
-
The point of a trigger warning is that you can take steps to prepare yourself, as determined by your psychologist. 1/2

"trigger warnings" can simply be letting people know certain things might be upsetting to better be able to handle things
-
"safe places" can mean various things too including clubs that welcome certain groups of people ... everything isn't just some public forum
