OK, OK,so mechanically injected 2-stroke charged diesels are superior to
everything else!! but the failure rate of modern automotive FI electronics
compares favourably with the rate at which TWIN magneto failures kill and
injure people in the US.
Just to put things in perspective.

However the reliability of the wiring is another matter. I agree that in
this respect some car based solutions are less than ideal.

 Bosch, nevertheless (the manufacturer of the K and subsequent electronic
systems) consider the latter to be more reliable. Maybe they have an axe to
grind (and they don`t make the wiring).
