Outstanding safety case

You can't underestimate the safety case for the IMC and you will always have this training behind you whatever the dullards at EASA do.

My advice would be to NOT do the training on a glass cockpit aircraft, the glass is almost too easy to use, two days ago I spent the first ten min or so playing catch up with a conventional instrument aircraft despite having about 400 hours IFR flight this year on glass cockpit aircraft.

Using a conventional instrument aircraft may me a bit harder to start but the reward is that you will be a much better and safer pilot for it and you will be ahead of the game when the glass goes blank and you have to revert to the standby instruments.
