This is a sad situation. Yes, you can always add devices that make things safer to the point they are unusable and so expensive none of us can afford them. A stupid person got hurt when he broke the rules (disabled the safety devices) and used a device in a way it was never intended (ripped a board with out the rip fence). The ambulance chaser got his golden ring, perhaps not enough to retire on, maybe he will have to find another stupid person that can act in an irresponsible manner and find someone else to blame. Oh yes, and another stupid jury.
