I would strongly advise thorough consideration of this specific comment in the ECF Safety Specification For Metal Tube mods post. Making disparaging remarks about a product using ECF's own guidelines as a basis could easily be taken as an act of libel against a particular company without sufficient proof that what ECF Staff are stating is undeniably true. Unless the person(s) making the statement that a device is "dangerous" is a recognized expert in the subject matter and/or is able to cite peer reviewed research that indicates the statement to be true, making a disparaging remark about a product opens ECF up to potential legal trouble. There would be significant merit as ECF is neither a governing body nor a coalition of experts in the fields of study related to these devices and would technically qualify as a business making disparaging remarks against one company at the benefit of others including, potentially, ECF itself.
I would also suggest updating the post to include the qualifications of those who developed these guidelines as well as factual justification for the reasons behind these exact specifications. Otherwise, they seem arbitrary and without the backing of verifiable expertise and data.
If manufacturers do not implement these features, we will, at some point in time, begin to refer to those products as dangerous and to be avoided. Therefore, there will be a marketing advantage to having the safety features.
