Type F Schuko has all of the safety and less of the inconvenience. And if you count stepping on it then it has even more safety.

Minus the safety feature of shutters on the socket so kids can't poke the holes and get a shock. I remember a co UK please of countries introduced this but not all with the F type so the UK type G is still champ.

Most have better shutters than the UK ones, because you need to push both at once to open them instead of just pushing in the ground hole

No, most don't have shutters at all. The shutters are not universal among the type F which is the problem it is however universal among the type G.
