Absolutely correct. In the many years I have been handling guns it gradually has occurred to me that I am all for about anything I can do to make gun handling safer and obviate the potentially awful effect of a "momentary mental lapse." Those lapses do happen, and if they happen at the wrong time...
For Heaven's sake, why wouldn't you use the yellow lever? If you are in that big of a hurry, I'd say you are well on your way to an accident. JMHO.
