Weather extremes. Blizzards, deserts, hurricanes, life rafts... If you're stranded on a cool summer afternoon, obviously you can be outside for more than 3 hours, but without shade you might get a sunburn.
It's meant as a survivalist priority list. Build a shelter, find water, make fire if you can. Food can wait until tomorrow or the next day.
Been there, done that. That's why I questioned the 3 hours thing. Then again my training/service was temperate and jungle.
Sure, and if you had done your training at a Golden Corral, you probably wouldn't have worried about food.
