In our SOP's it's a MAX 25degree AOB turn onto final
Is it only me finding this sort of imposed restrictions quite dangerous?

I've never heard about someone stalling in the circuit due to overbank. But I know loads of accidents caused by lack of bank.

Solo student: "Oh no, I'm overshooting the rwy centerline and are already having max allowed bank - but hey, that rudder gets me nicely in on the centerl... OOops!"
And so he spins into the ground!
