I'm sure that people who can read an FDA safety-only mark clearly labelled as safety-only will be just fine.
The benefits of separating them are relevant to this exact Alzheimer treatment; It has controversial efficacy, but now the FDA had to decide between "all doctors, insurance, and Medicare must cover/prescribe it" or "no one is allowed to do anything with it".
It will also serve to speed up the notoriously slow and expensive process to make something available and make grey-area treatments available. This completely fucked the FDA's early response to the initial need for COVID-19 testing kits. The FDA made a mistake as all organizations do, but its approval system is so inflexible it prevented many safe and realistically effective testing kits from being made available.
