What "safety reasons" would argue against a G-1000 system in favor of

Too many single points of failure, too little testing, too much complexity,
too much software, and the catastrophic failure modes of digital systems.
Hold on...
How many single points of failure in a vacuum system?
How do you know how much testing and of what type?
"Too much complexity"? What in Sam Hill does that mean?
Holy cow -- I just saw who posted that response.
Oy.
To the real pilots with G1000 experience:
My only beef with the G1000 equipped 182 is the lack of a TC. I like
those things. Personal preference.
The system would be nigh perfect if it had synthetic topography and
obstacle display.
