Insulted? No.
If you want to insult me, I would suggest starting with an assertion that my father had an odor of elderberries.
But I think a 98% failure rate is too high an estimate for number of people who start on such a project and don't finish it. (And 99.9% is just laughable)
And furthermore it's just sad that this forum has a number of people who seem to think that the vast majority of people that would begin such a project are incapable of doing it.
Sure I'm probably well above average for dealing with housewiring and such. But it's not like people with less experience and/or skill than me would be unable to do it if they wanted to. I mean my install is a little worse than most, requiring a new panel/meter. But if you're not dealing with that added complexity (something which I would usually have hired out myself, but this time tackled myself) then it's IMO about the same complexity as rewiring a kitchen.
