Far more folks are injured and/or killed every year, and have been throughout modern history, by firearms with safeties than are injured and/or killed by hammer fired rifles without safeties. Multiple orders of magnitude more.

A safety on a hammer fired rifle is nothing more than security theatre - an apparent safety feature which doesn’t actually improve safety.
