It seems to be a bit like the aircraft preservation people. One of

To be fair, when a classic computer fails in use, it's pretty uncommon
for anyone to die, and somewhat less uncommon for the entire device to
be destroyed in the process. Exactly the opposite is true in the case
of an aircraft.
I can assure you that flyers want to fly, especially something
interesting and/or unique, but sometimes the risk assessment doesn't
make that smart.
