Per your claim, some driver for some piece of hardware has a disabled feature which you can use to mess up your hardware. So why don't you just freaking avoid enabling that feature? Is it Linux's responsibility to absolutely prevent you from shooting yourself in the foot after taking very special effort to research the best way to blow it off? Question: does OS X fully support every possible bit of hardware which you can technically make to run with it, with every feature you want? Is it absolutely impossible to shoot yourself in the foot with OS X?
