Discussed right here less than a month ago. Turns out that it is
real expensive to replace the brake and blade every time it stops--
even when the unit stops for no apparent reason.

I use my guard and/or caution and have managed to keep all my fingers.

That is neat. Why didn't someone come up with this idea sooner.

Would wet wood trigger it, sweat, or light rain.

You mean like 10 years ago? They did. Why hasn't it caught on?
Because it is expensive, inconvenient, and mostly unnecessary.

Construction-wet lumber can; there's an override switch to defeat it for
the purpose. Of course, then there's no difference between it and
another saw w/o the brake.

Haven't seen the others specifically addressed, one would presume there
would be ways if can get enough apparent capacitance while the blade is
running, yes...

Agreed- a solution in search of a problem. Use the tool correctly and
carefully, don't work when you are tired/drunk/mad, don't let kids
operate it until they have had plenty of instruction and show the proper
maturity, etc etc. If you have stupid employees, get smarter ones.

Not to mention that I'll bet even the morons dumb enough to buy it, will
get ****ed and disable it after the first false trigger.

Oh, it works. It's about 2x the price of an equivalent saw and the
inventor is trying to force the "technology" (his patent) on the
industry.

And it costs real money each time it trips.
OTOH it could savea finger or two so some might consider it.
