I had forgotten the break away thing. IDK, I have mixed feelings. Short cord, yes. The no longer under the island or peninsula counter receptacle that allowed and errant knee or child to catch the cord, yes again. In the long run, I think the newer codes are wise.
But the spade connections are better for resistance, that I agree with. AFA easily detached, maybe not so much. I don't suppose you'd ever sell it so no worries unless you have an incident in your own home.
A good wake up call for us that grew up without bicycle helmets.
