I think it’s the same phenomena that nascar saw in the 90s the resulted in drivers pushes the envelopes cause the equipment was “safer” in some areas, that led to many deaths. NASCAR then eventually over designed the cars like IRL did after they went they similar.

There’s a tendency to push that envelope further if you think you’re safer behind your armor.
