I'm really a fan of this PR. Sec deathballing is a problem and the easy access of the emergency button unfortunately made it being the first thing sec members do the moment they get into a problem.
Calling over radio gives enough insecurity about your position to make sec members disperse on the search, taking some teeth out of the problem. And once a sec member dies the PDA message gives the correct position anyway.
Oh yeah, the last safety net besides... the AI, clone discs, the captain as additional security member, health implants that show your precise position on death, your gear tracker, and the excess/auxilliary equipment that is available on death that was made harder and harder to access by antags in multiple PR's.
Safety nets are important, but there is also a "too much" as well.

If you remove this, you'll just promote secoffs playing as paranoically as possible, and honestly, I wouldn't even be able to blame them for it, because there's no guarantee your body will even exist by the time anyone discovers you might be in trouble.
