I don't think that a thin mat or yoga mat IS a crash mat…and those who consider it one are not being any more responsible than those not using one.
Based on our experience in developing the recent insurance plan with our insurance broker and different companies we interviewed we noticed that more of the insurance companies were asking about their use and some already demanding it (as previously mentioned) and I believe it's going to be a necessity with most insurance companies eventually.

I guess I never fully answered my own questions at the start:
yes we have crash mats at our studio and use them consistently for learning new moves along with being spotted by an instructor (never another student) until the instructor has cleared them to do it on their own without a mat.
I use to keep a crash mat at home but don't any longer as I simply don't practice new inverts at home but I use it at the studio when I'm practicing.
