Yes, that could be dangerous. Since it's the default in M7.2 I'm used to
relying on this safeguard and was surpised when I saw that it had been
removed.

Apparently it was removed along with all commands in /etc/skel/.bashrc
(package etcskel) "to be able to do upgrade cleanly" (I'm quoting the
changelog but I don't understand it).
