Here is my reason: The ADI acts more like a VSI than an Attitude Indicator. In a situation where you are nose up, slow and descending, the TruTrak will show you as being "nose down" (if you interpret the ADI the same way you would interpret an AI). This could lead you to pull back and stall In a situation in which I have lost my Chelton, I didn't want to be confused about my attitude if I got slow and stall. Just my 2 cents D.
