What strange advice. If I were hiking and heard a whistle I would've just thought "Hm. Some asshole's got a whistle."

And then never thought about it again.

Well, for future reference, if you hear a long, continuous whistle, it could be someone in trouble. Not always, obviously, since context, but a whistle is a good emergency tool. There's a reason they're often found on lifejackets; so if you fall out of the boat, you don't waste your energy/breath trying to yell for help.

Good thing you're not in wilderness rescue, then. Or, presumably, really into hiking or similar outdoor activities on any level beyond maybe wandering down a nice, well-marked trail at the cottage, because it's one of the most common pieces of emergency advice you can get.

Just because there are people ignorant of what a call for help sounds like doesn't mean people shouldn't try to call for help if they need it.

You must just go on trails through parks then. Anyone who hikes or camps in the wilderness, without nice trailheads or signposts, knows regional codes of "help". Hunters have them, hikers and campers have them. Where I am, it's three short blasts on whatever. And hopefully the hunter brought a whistle so they don't waste all their ammo... You learn these things when you do proper training for these kinds of adventures.
