That's for serious mercury spills. It has no more to do with using CFLs
in your home than using a thermometer.

No, that IS the official policy for CFLs.
It is basically the same as for thermometers.
It is not that difficult.

My complaints on CFLs are:

SLOW STARTUP
Really a problem for areas that I am in for a short period of time.
A pain in the *** for rooms that I will be in for longer periods but have
to endure low light for a significant time.

LACK OF DIMMABILITY
There are rooms where I want different levels of light depending on the
activity.
