So for me to fondly listen to golden oldies from the good old 1960's may have a totally different spiritual implicaton than for that person.
I believe that person very well might have a God given "conviction" against listening to that music.
Of course in Pentecost historically the answer is just to ban outright for everybody anything that anybody might have a problem with or not be able to control or moderate!

In your example, this is not necessarily a conviction from God, but a smart thing to do. It does not become a law unto himself that is a sin against God that others do not have to obey.
Rather it is a smart thing to do. It is a GOOD thing for him to do. It is the WISE thing to do. But that is far from making it a sin against God.
In your example it makes more sense though. But in talking about standards it just does not make much sense that God convicts some women to wear their hair up and others not to.
