suicide switch! in toggle

Someone please tell me how this is considered a safe distance for a bare conductor from a metal case! I checked it. The resistance on the case and on the switch is almost the same as that of the conductors. God forbid you put a resistor in the circuit with this suicide switch. You will almost certainly be grounding the circuit to your body. Also, you can't solve the problem by adding insulation since the screws that secure the conductors are tamper evident. This goes straight in the trash because I honestly think paying just to have this item retired was worth it.

Pros
  • easy to use
Cons
  • poorly thought out
