Description
We've had this report on the flight code side regarding the button and we have several improvements we plan to make ([see PR](https://github.com/ArduPilot/ardupilot/pull/22051)) but we think it would also be good to change MP in one of these ways:
- Add an "Are You Sure?" question OR
- Replace the single button with "Armed" and "Disarmed" or "Safety On", "Safety Off" buttons
