And those band saws actually do technically brick themselves too lol

GP's first example is spot-on, the second is actually somewhat weak as almost anyone actually would prefer a bandsaw to brick itself rather than permanently maiming them.

Yea, it's a weaker example, but the problem with my saw moralizing about what it's cutting is 1. false positive bricking my tool, and 2. the user's lack of input--it should be my decision as the tool operator to add a safety measure.

Odd take as 90% of saw-stops are probably there because they were mandated by OSHA regulation. It's rarely up to the operator.
