Probably needs a little more context to answer this, but most likely it's a little of both.


Plenty of people have been in situations that are traumatic to them, that you wouldn't bring up as a discussion topic in front of that person. If someone you knew had been sexually assaulted, you probably wouldn't bring up sexual assault or make jokes about it in front of them. I think we'd all consider that pretty acceptable.


If you're talking about situations where certain discussions might be appropriate e.g. in a medical setting it very well might be relevant to raise uncomfortable topics or ask certain questions that could be viewed as triggering even though you know it would be triggering. In an academic setting it might be appropriate to discuss difficult or challenging topics even if - and perhaps especially if - it's a topic that would trigger someone.
