Well, what if you asked for aspirin and didn't know you were allergic to it? Then you might have a reaction and sue United! Then we'd all be paying the price in increased fares! Thank God for the caution!
Okay, the above was oozing sarcasm. Non-sarcasm: If what the f/a told you is true, this sucks. UA is beginnig to piss me off. I saw an event a week-and-a-half ago when the f/a gave, to the guy across the row, a brand-name palliative from her own purse! (I won't name names because I wouldn't want to get TYLENOL in trouble)
Okay, that was a nice gesture on the f/a's part, but why is the f/a paying for it? Whatever the rationale, I don't buy it.
Grrrr...

Give me amenities or give me death! Or I'll switch airlines to one that sucks less.
