Its OK, they're also mad at the people with seaplane ratings that haven't
flown one since they passed the checkride

Perhaps, and this might be sacrilege on r.a.i, and
I really should think about this more, but I may not intend
to maintain full instrument proficiency, or may not maintain
it all the time -- meaning that I will take lessons and
up my proficiency before flying IMC. Of course, I'll
avoid IMC if I'm not proficient. I already know how
to keep myself alive as a VFR PP.
