Three disagreements with what you said:

1) Whatever the statistics say, it is purely wild speculation that it was
pilot error in this case.

2) I strongly disagree that technological innovations will not help reduce
pilot errors. Technology has made a huge difference.

3) Single pilot IFR is far from "as dangerous as it gets." Plenty of
flying activities are significantly more dangerous.

Wrong. He was instrumented rated and his airplane was instrument

equipped.
He was also a fairly accomplished aerobatic competitor and airshow pilot.
There hasn't been nor will there ever be a technological solution to pilot
error. Flying solo, in a complex airplane, in IFR conditions is about as
dangerous as it gets.

Sounds like a case of a non-instrument rated pilot trying to find the

bottom
of the overcast. He did.
Cheers,
