  It is significantly harder to use, and this is a situation where if you make a bad enough mistake, you die. Transitioning from one kind to another means you have to figure out how they're different, introducing situations where you can more easily make a mistake. It also means you have to test more, which means using more strips, which means more cost. Ideally you would be doing this with the help of your doctor, which means more visits, which means more cost.
