As you're not buying my skydiving analogy, how about a motorcycle(y) analogy? Biking on the road is a dangerous activity, we should all agree on that. Actually, statistically far more dangerous than driving a F1 car in the modern era. However, it is also an extreme and highly enjoyable activity. Most bikers are acutely aware of the risks yet they still chose to ride because it's fun / thrilling / insert adjective here. What FIA are doing to F1 cars is like telling a biker there's a new law and they have to get their weekend kicks on this :-

   

Leave F1 cars the hell alone. They aren't meant to be enclosed.

His helmet hit the rear angled counterweight of the crane.  there's a video but i'm picking up you'd rather not have a link?  And no as we've said it was one of a number of accidents and near misses.   and it was very upsetting wasn't it, and still is.

Yes, it was upsetting. I don't really want to watch Jules accident in detail as part of an argument about safety in F1. But in the same breath I'm not pro changing the "spirit" of single seater racing just because the FIA "need to be seen to do something". Improve track safety, yes no problem with that. Improve safety process (not letting cars speed in the wet like the scenario of JB crash), yes no problem with that. Change the open cockpit nature of F1, sorry I do have a problem with that.
