I had never mount ELV emulator but I repaired  many of ELV's with 100% succes and secure. Most problems was ELV motor. Of course repair was more expensive than mounting ELV emulator, but one thing to think about: for most drivers cheap repair is more important than health or life....

That is exactly the reason, many people want it repaired cheap, they don't care about health. People replace BST with resistors etc to save few $$. Many BMW forums got zero tolerance for rigging parts that relate to safety.

That's depend. If everyone around your environment tells you to put the emulator, because it's cheap, safe and comfortable, then you are going to belive. Even when you check opinions, there are no opinions such as mine. So, unaware person is going to put that, because it has no reason to think wrong about the situation.

I still don't understand why people mess with the critical equipment without knowing what they are doing. If you don't know don't do it. And yes I see this kind of thing all the time. You don't jerry rig something on a car that could be an safety issue. If you can afford a BMW you can afford to repair the critical parts properly. If you don't have money, you bought the wrong car, BMW's are expensive to maintain, if you want a cheap car buy a toyota.
