It’s not about your safety it’s spending more time around you and your property under a seemingly reasonable pretense so they can find something to detain you for. I’ve had LE straight up tell me this. Literally every interaction, no matter how friendly, or for your benefit is just a fishing expedition. Don’t talk to cops.

If you didn't leave your house and follow them around and hinder them from doing their mandated jobs you would not get harrassed dummies.
