You miss a big bat point. You occasionally can drive your C6 batmobile at night and miss big puddles of deep water or even seeing them in dark daylight thunderstorms. Not to mention taking your eyes off the road to look at batgirl next to you when driving your c6 batmobile at speed in deep puddles.
That is good!

If you submerge it, you'll pop a motor. If you don't submerge it (don't take your vet through more than a 3-4" puddle) then you'll never have an issue.
True.
One can hydrolock their motor even with the stock air intake system if they try hard enough.

I also live in S. Florida and have NEVER driven my vet through a 3"+ puddle. These are usually easy to avoid in even in South Florida.
It can happen when it's not your fault. All it takes is someone else motorboating through standing water, throwing a wave. Once it goes into the Vararam there is nowhere for it to go except your engine. That's the problem with a closed system.
Must be alot of "stupid" drivers out there. Given the fact majority of vette owners do NOT modify their cars, hearing about the couple people in NM, reports of owners in Florida having issues, my own car back last summer, quicksilvers recent situation, various other threads over the years..........this seems alot more common then led to believe.
Agreed going on 3 years and no issues. 50K on the car and drive it everywhere. from south florida to central to houston rain Tstorms etc.. no issues.

You got that right. Though it is more likely for the Vararam since its closer to the ground as well as being a front feeder to "catch those waves". The opposite the radiator back feeder type is higher off the ground than the front feeder and wont catch a wave, just maybe the backwash.
