Yes, I agree safety is important. At the same time, if SM (for example) ride height is 44", I don't think that a child who is 43.75" tall is in mortal danger if they ride it.
It does stand to reason that there is a "danger curve", rather than going from 100% safe to 0% safe. This article:

mentions that the build and behavior of the child are probably factors in actual safety as well.
