Default German "Kite Mag." Interview Question About Squalls

Just answering some questions from this popular publication in Europe. They do a good, detailed job, in German of course, still good content. Did an interview with them a few years back. They're asking a bunch of questions for an article following a severe storm related kiting accident recently in Europe. Several riders were lofted simultaneously in a squall with a harsh outcome. Here's an interesting one I'm pondering:

3. Do you believe that kiteboarders are not well informed about the risks of storms? Do you believe that kitesurfers are intentionally too careless or through ignorance of the hazards?

What do you think?
