who cares.
it would refuse.
looks like "failed promotion" then.

that is still pacemaker. means, it works with pacemaker.

besides,
as currently implemented in the RA,
what exactly is that monitoring good for,
I mean what does it protect me against?

what _real_ (not theoretical, somewhen, iff implemented by someone)
