There are plenty of places that even in the daytime are gonna result in a crash (no matter how good your auto skills are) if you have an engine fail over them,...do they require a twin as well?
it’s not about you. It’s about the people on the ground that don’t have a say in your recreational or professional pursuits.
Authorities have decided that what you consider acceptable for risk is irrelevant and have, rightly or wrongly, set the bar higher for everyone else’s safety.
you will forgive them for not taking your word about how talented you are.
