Or does it?

I agree "not by itself" was said, mostly your comment just made me think of this newer tech for table saws. And, made me think "when is a design inadequacy a defect"?

My partner went to a carpentry school in Seattle 7 years ago where I learned about sawstops and I remember thinking the same. A pretty amazing technology exists that saves lives and limbs, and it is weird that we allow table saw without this technology.

Interestingly there was a discussion here about exactly that a couple of years ago: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=39977058
