Brent,
 
That same sort of thing was said about the parachute.  In fact - - I said it at one time.
 
I said lots of things - - that I wish I hadn't said.
 
I have had the opportunity during the certification to actually fly behind the "level"  button in the  G1000+ Garmin SR 22. 
 
I didn't think I would like it.   For all of the reasons and more that are inherent in your comment.
 
I ended up liking it.  
 
I don't think it is going to encourage anybody to do anything they shouldn't be doing.
 
I do think it will be of some use to marginal pilots in bad situations.
 
And, I think a number of pilots pilots will find some occasional uses for it in somewhat routine situations just as a  "time" saver when they are busy and want to change up their "game plan"  and do something different.
 
Regards,  George

They should call it a "Kill Switch" as it will encourage pilots to undertake aeronautical adventures that require skills not possessed by same.
