Simulated narrowband to replace OEM o2 sensor?

I know some cars are very sensitive to it, but is there any negative effect from using the simulated narrowband output from a wideband like the LC-1 to replace the factory o2 sensor?

I'm not aware of any negative effects.

If for some reason your wideband goes AWAL, then it'll obviously be sending screwy readings to the ECU which will adversely affect drivability/fuel economy.
I say this because 2x over the course of my LC-1 history, it's "lost" its AFR settings. This causes the XD16 gauge to display crap. Have to use their programmer tool to re-set the AFR setting for 'gas'.
