Sure, that mitigates the costs, but even knowing “this media is better unspoiled” is just a third level of spoiler (and often is enough to figure out the plot twist early, though notably not in a certain Disney animated feature).
My first guess of what ‘better unspoiled’ was was ‘it’s not complicated. The trailer gives too much away. Just go in expecting action, and you will get action. That’s it.’
A friend of mine considers “good/not” to be a significant spoiler. Which actually makes sense to me, because having low expectations can make me enjoy things more, and high expectations can make me enjoy things less.

a certain Disney animated feature
What’s this?
The three levels of spoiler:
Movie 1, 2, and 3 are good. (No spoilers)
“hey go watch Frozen, but I’m not gonna tell you anything about it” (you can intuit that there is some sort of plot twist surprise.)
Kill Bill is a revenge story where Uma Thurman messily kills her former gang in a variety of fights. (#spoileralert, Bill dies at the end)
Seems you are at least missing one if you think telling someone Bill dies at the end of a movie called “Kill Bill” is your last category.
To get overly analytical, you know it’s a possibility Bill dies. In Sixth Sense you may not even consider the possibility what’s-his-name is dead.
