Shut off water at home???
When you leave home for a few days, do you turn off the main water valve at your house?

Yes. Flooded basements are no fun.
I don't do any of those things when I go to work or go out for the day and that's five or six days a week, every week.
Except you come home at night so worst case you are gone 10-12 hours. That's a big difference from being gone for days or weeks. If you catch things early you can minimize damage. If no one's there to know there's an issue and the water runs for an extended time then you exponentially increase your potential for damage.
