I would guess because Blazing Saddles is so clearly anti-racist in its actual messaging. If it gets pulled for racism it's an unambiguous case of either cognitive dissonance or uninformed judgement. To add insult to hypothetical injury, racism is weaponized in the film by an upper-class railroad baron to divide the working poor amongst themselves so they don't unite against him. Having the film spark yet another battle along ideological lines among the less well-off of society would be weirdly poetic.
