Hey Crab.....I hear You Mate, I'm not negating the value of an AH, for IMC & for NVMC it is a life saving necessity. Wouldn't leave home without it!!!
For DayVMC under VFR in the Mountains it is a distraction from looking outside if Pilots wanna be chasing it & in these unique conditions eyes outside is where You wanna be, to stay safe
Heaven forbid, I'd never wanna be up in these Mountains at night
Happy Landings
