I think the majority of pro posters here are bums down in experimental category aircraft. A quite different breed of pilots.
They would most likely have all the multiple egt and cht sensors. Pilot would be soul operator and has a vested interest in flying his aircraft non commercially to obtain cheapest cost per mile.
However a commercial operator with their fleet of 210 or 206/7 type aircraft with a bunch of newbie 200 hr pilots who don't ultimately care about engine life or costs are expected to change engine control procedures, some even can't work out how to operate the cowl flap handle. I can't see it happening anytime soon.
Good luck
