I've noticed this dreadful mangling increasingly recently. When one uses
'one' as a subject, then one must only use 'one' as the pronoun in the rest
of the phrase. So it should be "One incurs no pain when one risks what one
does not possess."

So come along, chaps, get with it, or must one get mediaeval on yo' ass?
