Really? So the next question is who made the decision to put the PWM shutoff so high? With things we saw in 2013 and 2014, 7V is a number pretty easily hit by a 6 CIM drive, even if it is just for a few ms. Also why ever drop the 5v and 3.3v rails? It seems like disabling those causes more problems for teams, and troubleshooting sensor drops are harder then pwm drops.
