The potential harm here is in not making the amend. We don't have any guarantees how people are going to accept the amend, but it must be made "except when to do so would injure them or others." I don't see how any injury could be done here except that not making the amend would mean that Firehazard would have to live with the knowledge that he used someone and didn't do the right thing by making the amend, which could over time, lead to that next drink. Again, a sponsor or trusted friend would be an asset when making the amend.
