WHY are you sold on AFCI? As near as I can figure from the
numbers, less than a dozen people per year are killed by
fires that an AFCI would have prevented.

Because:

1. I could be one of those 12 people a year.
2. One of my family members can be one of those 12 a year
3. Because of the fire prevention value.
