I would imagine that the FFA wouldnt just want ejected jet aircraft crashing into the sides of building in chicago. At least without the ejector seat the pilot has a chance to control the aircraft away from further damage.
In my day (and I think today as well), it was simply understood as a matter of personal honor, that you STAY in the aircraft...doing everything possible to avoid dumping it in a populated area. Even knowing that to clear those in danger on the ground may cost you a safe ejection, you have to make that ultimate sacrifice; however, if you are SURE you can't make it (and still have control), you try to steer it toward the lesser populated area & eject above the seat envelope (as in the USMC F/A-18 accident in SDiego last year).
It's a tough Pilot's decision, but it's of no use to stay in the bird if his situation is untenable... just needlessly adds one more to the casualty list.
The Navy trusts [us] to safely fly these expensive machines, and further, to make the right & honorable decision in extremis.
