So what's safer. Pilot sitting in helicopter waiting for the blades to stop,
while god knows who, is wandering around, or pilot getting out of the helicopter
to ensure that no one walks into the blades?

There was a B407 accident not too long ago in which the PILOT got out and walked into the MR blades - fatal.
