I'm sorry, but I Totally disagree here. As someone who has been on both shots & pump therapy, I had very problematic control before starting on the pump (A1Cs of 8s, 9s, and higher), and we tried Everything imaginable, including up to 6 shots per day! Once I started pump therapy, my A1Cs dropped to the 4s, 5s & 6s! BIG difference!
Not Everyone can achieve satisfactory control without the use of pump therapy, and it is my belief that things should be looked at on a case by case basis, rather than as a whole.
