how do you know this to be true? the cells that repair the cut are brought to the wound over time, so wouldn't it make sense to kill as many infectious agents in the beginning, even if this means losing a few of your own cells, in preparation for the repairs to come?
in any case, i've had positive experiences (no scarring, no infection) the many times I've been superficially injured ("It's only a flesh wound.") and used each sequentially.
