Because it is a substance that has extreme physical hazards cognisance of which must always be a priority when planning even the simplest of procedures and the use of best laboratory practice at all times is paramount in ensuring its safe use.
People need to be careful when using ether because it is highly flammable and can easily ignite when exposed to heat or open flames. Inhaling ether vapor can also cause dizziness, nausea, and headaches. Additionally, ether can be harmful if it comes into contact with the skin or eyes.
Ether is an extremely effective solvent for many chemical reactions but is extremely dangerous. First and foremost, ether is extremely flammable. In enclosed environments, ether can also exhibit certain explosive properties (explosions in meth labs are often the result of the use of ether solvents and poor ventilation). Many ether solvents will degrade to a peroxide form which can be extremely volatile. Expired casks of ether must be treated very carefully (bomb-squads are often called upon to dispose of expired ether kegs at chemistry labs). Ether also has psychoactive properties which for many years were utilized by the medical community as a general anesthetic. In general, ether must only be used in extremely ventilated environments with proper fire safety devices.
Using a mixture of ether and hexanes allows for a wider range of solubility and better separation of compounds compared to using only ether or only hexanes. This combination provides a more versatile solvent system for various types of compounds in a chemical reaction or extraction process.

You can use it to render someone unconscious and its flammable.
Be careful where you step.
The major disadvantage of using ether as an extracting solvent is that it is very flammable. It also oxidizes into an explosive in some cases, is an anesthetic, and is very vapor dense (meaning it will fall to the floor and move around there).
It is important to be careful when doing anything!
One disadvantage of using hexane as an extracting solvent compared to petroleum ether and alcohol is that hexane is more toxic and poses a higher risk to human health and the environment. Additionally, hexane has a lower boiling point than petroleum ether, making it more flammable. Finally, hexane has a higher cost compared to petroleum ether and some alcohols commonly used as extracting solvents.
Careful is an adjective (using care). The adverb form is carefully.
For a graph to be accurate, it is important to be as careful as possible.
