No.
Yes it is ... Anyone who thinks otherwise must be a cretin.

Well, it really is hard to take seriously someone's argument when they
load it with such abuse, but nevertheless I shall give you the courtesy
you seem disinclined to extend to others. The systems of the train are
there for everyone's benefit. If any system which has been specified as
part of the design as safety critical is defective, then by definition
the train falls below the minimum standard required to be in service.

Investigation of many of the worst railway accidents has made it clear
that people with opinions such as yours who have made their own personal
assessment that this or that safety system is unimportant have either
actually caused the accidents or made their consequences much worse.
