The penultimate sentence of the article:

The story is about a pilot who made a silly mistake or two, learned from it, and now wants others not to make the same mistakes. No reason at all to suggest a new editor is needed.

Even all-electric aircraft like the DA40/42 can have the electric master turned off in flight without suffering engine failure. In fact, is there any aircraft of any size whose engines require electric masters to be on?
