EDIT, after a little searching, you need a tool that Shimano used to make, called a FH-40.

Thankfully for you, Park Tool make one, its called a FR-2

I don’t know about the safety
I don’t know about the safety aspect. But I’m going with this reason.

Retailers set a price for a bike, which is normally less than the sum of its parts (if bought individually)

They don’t want to start taking parts off and giving discount’s.

It leaves the customer with two choices, buy the bike and do something with the parts they don’t want or buy the parts and build the bike they want
