Default Is Knob-and-Tube *Always* Dangerous?

I read what Jim sent, which makes sense for any potential fire hazard. Any
wiring in poor condition would be a risk for an insurance company

Never heard of such a thing. All over the NE houses have K&T, and they
all
have insurance. AFAIK, the NEC still recognizes K&T, so I can't imagine
why
insurance companies would have any problem with it


I've been hearing stories about K&T related cancellations for several
years.
