I pity anything near you that might be warm if it doesn't work out

When younger we didnt have PLBs.
But we were fit and were comfortable in the bush.
Biggest worry was getting shot by some other hunter.
Now I am older have one for piece of mind as the body starts to age(or to be honest has aged).
If I was in the my twenties to late thirties again I would be argue I could do without one.
But have used a compass and map known where I am and where I am going for the last 40 years.
It is technology that is handy but not essential.
