True Mike very true, unless
You have a total short whilst in cloud that fry's everything else.
I that case you are going to thank Christ (or what ever your mythical

Obsolete instrument mandated by the Regulator. In gliders mainly
used to fill instrument hole that could be used for something useful.
In high wing powered aircraft can be used as attach point for
pair of fluffy dice which are about as useful.
