I am contemplating making DRS the standard shield where one is included. But there are things to consider.
I started using DRS not long ago by virtue of the need to expose my girlfriend in order to protect her from certain people of very manipulative negative intent whom she is trying to remove from her life. To do this, most of the time, I need to be exposed also. I ran two loops before we went to bed that night, partly to get her to stop projecting negativity at me (she was upset with something going wrong with her work) and partly because of those people.
Within 10 minutes she had stopped projecting at me, and her demeanor was very positive. This de-escalated what would otherwise have resulted in an hours long smoldering disagreement or even a fight, and we went back to being happy and conversational in less than 15 minutes.
I noted the next day that my actions were very different. I was significantly more arrogant in my actions, and thoughtless. I was visiting a store and by giving my advice where it was not asked for, cost the proprietor a sale. That was not my intent, and I felt bad about that afterward.
After thinking about it, I realized that my way of knowing when to check my ego must be to gauge and react to the negativity of others at a subtle level. With no feedback, it immediately began expressing more freely. This doesn't make me happy, because I thought I had done a better job than that of growing past that response. On the other hand, this gives me a clearer understanding of what is going on and a better opportunity to REALLY grow past it.
Humans use subtle energy interactions as a constant form of communication, and this allows you to "plug your ears" to negativity completely or almost completely. That will remove that "band" of communication from reaching you. You will have to learn to adjust your perceptions of what is going on and how to respond.
But... it occurs to me that using the DRS instead of the NDRS as my standard built in shield would make a lot more sense in certain, if not all, cases. For LTU6 and DMSI at the least, that seems like a great move - but I do have to more fully contemplate the consequences and make sure it is not going to have any unintended negatives. I also have to make sure that it passes modeling.
There are other stand alone shields in the pipeline, too. But right now I have my hands full.
