Anyone commercial already has to go in for 100hr inspections all the damn time. The STC is unlikely to cost much relative to that, nor to add much additional hassle.
Anyone private can deal with it, they own their own plane and knew it wasn’t going to be a cheap hobby going in.
G100UL will cost a bit more than 100LL but it seems likely this will change a bit as it becomes more widely used.
I guess it puts people operating midcentury radials that haven’t yet been certified for G100UL in a weird spot.
