Safety shut off is no different than any other cause of the power being off. Power off is power off.
If you need to charge your EV to flee the wildfires, does it really matter just WHY the power is off? I think not.
If it is 100 degrees outside and you need to cool your home, does it really matter just WHY the power is off? I think not.
I could go on and on, but you get the idea. Power outages for ANY reason are a problem when you have to rely entirely on electricity.
If you want to talk about safety shut offs due to poor installation and maintenance of equipment that is a different conversation.
Whatever.
So, if you are losing an argument, say that the argument is wrong? Again, attack, deflect, change the subject.
If it was a reliable grid, there would be no "safety shutoffs."
BTW, the lack of maintenance is due to the California state government mandating (there is that word again) that they spend their funds on "green projects." Now, after not letting PG&E do required maintenance, they are suing them for not doing said maintenance.
