I don't think any flotation device is going to do anyone any good if your body is wet and you aren't removed from the water in time !
Buys you time, may keep your head from going under and inhaling a ton of water from the initial shock and makes your body more buoyant to help you get out with picks or with the help of others. Your chances of survival are much greater if you are not wasting a ton of energy trying stay above water. No one can help you if you go under and you have no chance of survival under the water.
Yes I understand that , but I'm referring to time in the water . Flotation well not save you if your into long . But I agree it increases your chances of making it ...
