I agree with Samaxe123. Some forms of reactive adaptation only let the user deal with the task at hand, meaning that some of the powers they'd adapt to possess would only be temporary. Additionally, it might take a while for the adaptation to occur (i.e. Darwin from X-Men First Class), so it wouldn't take all of the danger away, just lessen it slightly as the body would attempt to find a way to survive the event.
