Some of us have more concern about our fellow human beings.

I also have "more concern about our fellow human beings", and would not
imitate the joker you cite. However, I do not believe that absolute
safey can be legislated. Therefore, we are left with permitting "a
certain level of danger" to be visited upon "innocent passengers".

No matter where the line is drawn, it could be drawn elsewhere.
Anything can be made safer at the cost of reducing utility. I just
don't think it's a good idea.

This stuff goes on on the time in G/A. Not by everyone for sure. But, by enough folks that the hapless passengers is just rolling the dice.

GA is not unique in this, and "hapless passengers" (or the equivalent in
=any= activity) are =always= "just rolling the dice" to some degree. I
just believe that the amount of dice-rolling permitted in part 91 is
approprite.
