You have pretty well summed it up.
It’s likely, in any operation where the people on board, IE pilots/pax, have any say, that an EC225 won’t be used.
And yet look at that recent report about the S92 in Canada. Ok they missed the sea by 13’ but it was very close. And not the first time. The 225 may have a quickly-detachable rotor head but the autopilot made the aircraft much safer in the face of loss of SA/pilot incompetence. But as ever, unfortunately humans don’t evaluate risk logically or rationally.
