This is such a common argument for everything NIMBY. Your point remains valid, but the argument you've presented comes across uninspired.

What if you had no way to stop or from happening; what do you think might be reasonable mitigation steps that regulators could take to minimize the risk to your BBQ?

If something becomes an inevitability, you probably should be prepared with an argument that is accepting of that inevitability while still addressing your worries/concerns.

Just because the argument is "common" or "uninspired" doesn't make it wrong.

Certainly different "NIMBY" complaints can have differing levels consequences based on whether we're talking about sweeping changes to the skill level of most GA pilots vs. do we build this new apartment building here or not.

"No fatal airplane crashes in my back yard" is probably the easiest NIMBY to justify of all time.

There’s a world of difference between NIMBYism about housing/zoning versus GA pilot experience.
