Does help that the things you can genocide are less nasty than the things you cannot, and you don’t want to be facing 100% the things you cannot genocide. Amuses me even more that the best use for scrolls of genocide is to read them while confused, which causes specific monsters to be summoned on demand
Welcome to nethack, where even scrolls of genocide (removes entire monster classes upon reading) are considered to be not overpowered.

Do not read a scroll of genocide while confused.
It will genocide the player race, which is generally a bad idea. You want to read a cursed scroll instead.
Oops! Looks like it was me that was confused. Yes, don’t do that.
