I think the theory is that disabilities rarely occur without warning.
If you get chest pain while driving a bus, you can pull over to the
side of the road. If it happens in airplane, it may be a while before
you can find a safe place to park.
Yes, I'm sure that this is the reasoning used by Joe Bureaucrat for
keeping the reg. Of course, that bus driver might hit about 30
pedestrians when he pulls over to the side of the road while the pilot
may take out a backyard hot tub somewhere when he goes down.
