Dorbie would never, ever, in a million billion years use sarcasm to make a point.
But I just did. As he did.
So yes, dorbie is saying the same thing as you, that zippers fail.

Looks like the guy behind him is holding a dummy M4 Rifle. Pointed right at the other guys face LOL. Regardless of if it's fake or real with no magazine...not supposed to point it at peoples faces 
Thats how that soldier with the hiccups got shot in the face. His buddy being stupid.

QuoteQuoteThank goodness zippers never fail either. I mean, once you find and grab the zipper tab your handle is hidden behind you can trust your life 100% to a zipper opening in a fraction of a second in 120 mph wind with fabric flapping away. Nobody has ever had a zipper jam on them!
Do you want to bet your life on that? I have seen jumpsuit zippers jam on several occasions.

Whooooosh!

It's all about the marketing necessity of wringing the last hypothetical ounce of performance out of a design. Enclosing as much of the harness as you can reduces drag, but at what cost? Well, you can no longer access you cutaway and reserve handles in an emergency. Not a consideration for a base rig, but bad news for a standard rig. Maybe that suit shouldn't be used out of an airplane with a standard rig.
I would never bet my life on a zipper working quickly.

This hasn't caused any incidents yet, so it's as safe as a hoodie.

That would make it as safe as riding the back seat on my ZX-11. I still would not recommend it???
