There is no real justification for encouraging all the single pilots to scud run when they could , if the suitable aircraft were out there , go up and be at a safe altitude ifr .
If they are IR qualified, maybe. But it would take a seed change from the regulators to allow it. Having said that, I've encountered a few that already think it is already acceptable to fly in IMC in non-IFR equipped helicopters.
