Since a false positive generally causes much less harm than missing a true positive making no false positives a requirement is generally a terrible idea.

As I mentioned in another post, Apple shouldn’t be farming out the determination to emergency services. They can provide an intermediary to determine the severity. The situation is such that a phone or watch does not have enough information to properly evaluate a situation as an emergency or not.

This really depends on how many of false calls happen. There is a point at which these start being detrimental.

Seems like naïveté and myopia are endemic to tech companies, large and small. Smart people who are confident yet clueless.
