Accusump - pros & cons

I can understand both sides of this coin BUT a stocker has to use a factory type pan that was designed for STREET use. Only one ‘stock’ pan comes to mind that was made for racing, the swinging pickup Max Wedge pan. In other classes one can use the hot lick setup that doesn’t absolutely need an accusump IMO only.
Or the engine could be like my Toyota. I bought it thinking the timing chain was bad, drove it home (20 miles @ 60 mph) found out the crankcase was dry, no oil! Bad sending unit that leaked big time. Filled it up with oil, still driving 2000 miles later with NO issues. Must be good engines?!
