...but the statistics have convinced EASA...
Yes, maybe. But I am not a statistic and I don't want to become one. I am an individual and for me, the probability that the engine will fail on my next flight is exactly the same than as it will fail on my thousandths flight (at least this is what they taught me in maths back at school). A bit like 200hp motorcycles. Statistically they seem to be safe enough that that lawmakers allow them to be sold to anyone and driven on public roads. Yet my own sense of self-preservation tells me to do the smart thing and stay away from them.
