There was a federal court ruling back in the early 1900s
At the time, tugboats did not come standard with radios
Something happened, and a bunch of people died on tugboats that did not have radios. They could've lived had they had radios.
The court ruled that if you don't include all available safety features, or features that could be related to safety, you will be held liable should anything go wrong.
In other words, if I sold a car with no "safety features", and that car crashed, I would be held liable for it.
We must realize that the federal government is a foreign occupation.
