A family of four can expect to pay between 1200-1500/mo on typical conventional HMO/PPO coverage on COBRA.

(I was agreeing with you, just adding a data point).

My point is that COBRA costs significantly more than your health insurance plan when you opt to use it. Why people disagree with that so vehemently is odd.

Which is beyond affordable since you just lost your job. CORBA is a horrible solution.
