I would think that additional insurance prices would also be necessary to
cover the occasional payout for blotched aerobatics, ending in destruction
of the plane, and occasional demise of the pilot. :-( Add to that, the
tricky ground handling causing ground loops, bent gear, and bent wings, ect.


Aerobatics is every bit as safe as flying straight and level, even if
one figure or two go wrong (which inevitably happens when you explore
new maneuvres). Statistically, aerobatics is even safer than "normal"
flight.

Ground handling a Pitts is another thing, though.
