And everyone wore helmets while they drive...

Then the people who suffered whiplash and broken knecks from the additional weight from the helmet could berate the people who got concussions and brain damage from not wearing them.

Yep. There’s the rub. Make it extra safe and someone will complain. For all we know, this lock on the key, with a stiffer spring, causes people to complain that it is too hard to use.

There is always a compromise between cost, convenience, safety, performance, etc. GM thought they had it with this thing and it turns out they didn’t. They fixed it in future cars. But the older cars were still safe at a 99.999% level, which is very high.

I hate GM, but this is a tempest in a teapot, just like the Toyota thing, the Audi thing and the Pinto thing.
