Despite requests in the past, you have never provided a specific example 
of a  circuit that needs a "grid protect transistor rated at >50A".

The schematic of my grid-protection circuit is in the Triode Board user 
manual which is downloadable from the website. The only transistor in 
this circuit is a 2N2222 that senses a small fraction of the grid 
current, and can handle even extreme fault conditions.
