I think the same thing was found as ejection seat envelopes were improved. The pilots just waited longer before giving up on recovering without ejecting. People tend to maintain a constant risk profile even as technology should make things safer. This isn't necessarily irrational as nobody lives forever any way and the probability of dying of natural causes gets to be several percent per year as you get older and a voluntary risk of some activity of the order of 1 in a thousand per year (0.1%) doesn't make much difference to your life expectancy.

Use with any ADSB ready transponder. As it is non TSO'd I wouldn't expect it to be approved for IFR.
