Distinguish "allowed" from "able". It's unsafe to drive around with the brake light bulbs removed, but this doesn't mean that auto manufacturers shouldn't let you change your own brake lights.
Right. And maybe even more key is that the manufacturer "allowing" that does not alleviate you from liability for any bad thing that happens as a result of you choosing to drive around without brake lights.
There are other ways to cultivate safety, besides manufacturers locking things down and making them an unmodifiable black-box.

Yes, but they're more difficult and costly; a blackbox is cheap, easy, and when done a certain way, it will increase profits. Why wouldn't companies do this? (I wish I could answer this)
