repetitive stress injuries/ power to weight ratios

does anyone know if there are any test results or papers on repetitive stress injuries from cordless hand drills out there ? I have 2 products a Dewalt dw 997 and a dw 989. they are the same drill as far as power and weight yet the 989 has 2 handles and the 997 is a single handeled drill. My contention is that the 997 which came out first should have had a second handle to save the user the risk of a repetitive stress injury Black and Decker / dewalt say they've never heard of this problem or any test stating this fact which i find odd that there is no R&D on this or any standards regaurding this problem. Thanx

Aren't you more at risk of white finger from drills?

Should the over 70's be made to retake their driving test?

Yes, but the new license should be permanent. 

Yes, but only if they have been in an accident. 

No.
