1-While this has become the standard method of use, it is not uncommon to find individuals still practicing more archaic forms of Dust manipulation, such as weaving it into clothing or even fusing it directly with their own bodies

It's the only evidence, but until it goes away, this is a hill I'll fight for.

2-I'm confused as to what you're trying to say. People might be desperate, arrogant, foolish, power-hungry, ignorant, unwilling, and/or stupid. ---

3-Who's that? 1-Yes, some people use it. Yes, they might have a reason for it, or just be dumbasses.

Doesn't mean it's inherently stronger or more efficient than Dust clothes or Tattoos, like you so-want for it to be.

2-My point is, if the "tradeoff" is a low chance of success or survival, only morons would use it. Anyone who uses common sense would pick something with more reasonable chances of working, or at least of not killing them.

Meanwhile, the morons who do use it get killed more often than not, either because of it's low chance of success (which is no good in a fight against a Grimm), or it's low chance of survival.

Why would anyone pick the choice that is, say, 80% likely to be lethal, when there's another option that is just as effective and is far less likely to be lethal?
