Surely thats poor training? In the context of MR, having a fail to safe option is fantastic, particularly if you have team members with varied levels of expertise/experience.
We use them in our team year round for stretcher lowers. Double up for big loads and barrow boys.
Agree that the sweet spot for lowering before it locks is a bit narrow, but reassuringly so tbh.
