I think that's a strange way to approach a killswitch. The point of a killswitch is to stop everything NOW, so the system can be checked. After the problem is understood, then it's safe to restart strategies gradually and unwind positions. A system shouldn't attempt to send more orders when it's in an unpredictable state. I believe many regulators require such a switch.
