True, but still a snorkel is going to provide him with some safety in knowing he's not close to hydro locking it. I'm not sure how the Taco's are built but the XJ's have a nice little air inlet which, while not going to drown electronics yet, does in fact have the good chance of pulling in water depending on depth.
But, agreed in that the things you mentioned are indeed a big concern.
