[Paddlewise] PFD?

This does get a bit old. In all the years that paddlewise has debated over 
whether a person should always wear a PFD  not one person has ever given an 
answer to this question.

A person is paddling his kayak and not wearing a PFD. A person is swimming 
beside him and not wearing a PFD. The one is considered unsafe the other 
not. Is it the kayak that is unsafe or the not wearing of the PFD?

Cheers
