Ok but then that would seem to absolve the manufacturer of liability. If you sell someone a hammer and they try to eat it the manufacturer isn’t liable for the damage.

If the product is defective and misused when somebody gets hurt, I don't think the manufacturer is totally in the clear morally, or even legally.

Cool, let's ban the product and kill thousands more people than they save.

Don't let perfect be the enemy of good when good is increasing lifespans and reducing bad outcomes.

I mean, you don't ban the product, we don't do this generally. But you do make the manufacturer change their language or advertisment.

Have you ever read the book of papers that come with a CGM?

[mikkupikku]

Bro I'm not calling for anything to be banned, I'm responding to the sentiment that the story doesn't make sense because users of CGMs should know better.

Is it defective if it tells you it may make mistakes and must be verified and then it makes a mistake?
