You and Docteur Peepere don't have that 'BP like' ignore the possibilities and worry about the consequences later frame of mind........do you?
BP like? Good grief man..You gotta be kidding me Andy. Your comparison is slightly askew.

You don't like the auto shut off, fine ..let's go one step further. One is holding onto the handle..no "hold open clip"..and the plunger still sticks in the nozzle even AFTER you let the handle go? That's happened to me. How do you prevent that?

It's just like anything else. There are always some kind of malufunctions with the equipment. Might be one in 1,000,000,000 pumpings..but equipment failure/equipment malfunction happens,even with the best maintenance.

You can't prevent the invevitable. You can't make EVERYTHING totally 110% safe or idiot proof. No one can.
