Well, racing, or at least riding in a race-like manner, isn't about being safe. Speed and efficiency are the priorities.
"Tail gating" and "wheel sucking" comes with the territory.
Which is why part of the resistance against disc brakes makes a bit of sense. For racing or riding in a race like manner, discs don't offer much advantage. At least not in the dry.
