Does anyone else just ignore the amber lights until service time?

Not proud of this but my approach for years has basically been if it’s not red, it can wait until the next service, and honestly it’s worked out fine so far touch wood. My wife on the other hand panics at the slightest thing and wants to book the car in the second anything appears, so we’ve had a few debates about it on the way home. I found this Helpful guide to dashboard warning lights and showed it to her mostly to prove my point that amber usually means get it checked soon, not drop everything and pull over, though I’ll admit reading it properly made me realise I’ve probably been a bit too relaxed about a couple of them. Curious what the general rule is here, do you lot treat amber as a this week thing or a next month thing? I get the feeling a lot of people just stick a bit of tape over it and carry on but maybe that’s just my circle.
