Your posts always read as though (a) you responded to the previous one without thinking and (b) have steam coming out of your ears. Both false impressions, no doubt.

The following statements, which I believe to be true, are all mutually compatible.

The majority of glider pilots do not fly in cloud.

Many glider pilots sometimes fly in cloud.

Many glider pilots are also current (or retired) ATPLs, and many (possibly a majority) of those sometimes fly in cloud in gliders and consider it perfectly safe.

We live in a moderately free society, and advocating the removal of someone else's rights or privileges is likely to reduce others' sympathy when ones own rights are summarily removed.

The risk to IMC aircraft OCAS is higher from military aircraft than from gliders.

More heat than light has been shed upon the subject of the thread so far.
