I think there are things that if you hear about them ahead of time can minimize the impact you get out of something and that's when it's unfortunate to be spoiled even for things that have been out a while.

Like, for instance, what happens to Wash in Serenity. If I'd been spoiled for that, some of the impact of the moment would've been gone because I would've known what was going to happen.

Or if you've played Zelda's Breath of the Wild the whole game is about discovery and I know there are several points in time where I've come upon something in the game that if I'd been following a guide (don't follow a guide) and it had told me in advance what I was about to encounter, it would've totally ruined the moment. I will never forget approaching a shrine and coming face to face with something that truly surprised me and felt like a moment you'd see in a movie. If I'd known about it before that happened, I wouldn't have had the same feeling and I wouldn't have even known what I was missing!

Uh, anyway...despite all that, you're not necessarily wrong about over-focusing on not being spoiled is also a way to lessen one's enjoyment. Getting angry at people for not spoiler tagging All The Things is just not good for one's blood pressure and sometimes the things I've seen people get upset about not being tagged just feels like going a little over the top.
