Is there a benefit to eating rarer meat? I've heard from (unreliable) sources that consuming rare meat/raw fish is beneficial because it contains more creatine. Myth or fact?

Taste.

I'm paranoid about food poisoning.
Was your food poisoning in the past from undercooked meat?
The first time, possibly, never identified the cause there.
The second time, I'm almost sure it was tainted pistachios...remember when they had that huge recall last spring? (I ate them before it all came to light in the media, not after, just in case anyone was wondering :icon_conf).
So your paranoia is probably completely unwarranted then?
Beef can actually be eaten nearly raw. Only whole cuts though, not mincemeat. Bacteria only forms on the surface of the exposed meat so a quick sear of the surface makes it completely safe to eat. Chicken and pork are big no-nos and must always be cooked through completely.
You got food poisoning from pistachios so you decided to refuse to eat undercooked meat?
