It's the legal situation, thanks to the advertising lawyers searching for stooges. We're in a world now where you basically have to dislaim any suitability for any situation. If I say crash guards and you crash and hurt yourself, then maybe I lied and was responsible for misleading you into thinking thinking my crash guards would protect you. Anyhow, sturdy or not, don't rely on crash guards for anything more than to help a bike lay down at zero speed. They will bend or break if you rely on them to protect from impact at speeds as little as 5mph.
