You are obviously in the SE IFR is no problem camp and yet you have no true knowledge of how reliable the engines are. Pehaps you believe the myth that a certain engine is solid as a rock; but they are not; and they do fai;l and when that one powerplant fails the aircraft is only going one way. Even if you do land on a convenient road below and put road users at risk maybe one of them will hit you. Turbines do surge and and valves do fail and people who continue a myth that they don't are just sticking their heads in the sand.
