I am not sure why you seem pessimistic that contest pilots won't rent
PowerFLARM if available--especially to help make up their own minds
how well this technology works and whether they should purchase a unit
(should be pretty convincing).
I would hope that especially with rental units available then
preserving one's own ass, and if that fails then peer pressure, would
achieve a very high adoption rate. And even if that does not work then
trying that route before approaching this as something that needs to
be mandated seems to make a lot of sense. The contest community will
have vast amounts of experience with this by next year and able to
have a much more informed discussion--which might well change things.
And if things need a push or an experiment makes sense then the option
is still open to make a contest Flarm mandatory.
