I am thinking about electronic issues, Air Conditioning, etc. To buy a policy as comprehensive as this (albeit with a lower deductible) I believe is $5K to $7k (please correct me if I am wrong). While the Geico policy I am guessing is not transferable, at least one need not pay such a large premium for general piece of mind for repairs that can easily cost $1,000 or more. I think my odds of coming out ahead (which is the way I tend to weigh whether a policy is worth it) are pretty good on something like this. Am I interpreting this wrong?

Exactly, you don't get this policy for fear of a door handle breaking. It's all of the electronics in these cars. Can you imagine what a fried iDrive or live cockpit pro screen would cost to replace? Scary!
