Yet when a post pops up such as “never wear your 1000m dive watch in the hot tub it will destroy the seals and cause damage” I never see a “prove it” type request.

I hope the fear mongering and rumors of damage, bad habits etc. end but it will take the watch community to promote the end of it. I personally hope we all agree too.
The 'pics or it didn't happen' quote is used tongue in cheek. No one, as far as my experience, means it literally. As previously mentioned, watch folk are suckers for good photos.
