Having no brake lights for regenerative braking sounds incredibly dangerous. Regenerative braking can slow the vehicle down quite quickly, and as the name "one-pedal driving" suggests, it's common to barely touch the brake pedal at all.

I often only use the brakes from 20mph and below (though may touch them during a downshift) Thinking it's more dangerous is odd as it's a great example of fail safe.
