It can, sort of. Safe mode will still boot just fine. But then what should it do? Just blacklist the driver and reboot? That’s not going to work too well if it’s the storage driver.

Well they could still just blacklist all 3rd party drivers except storage drivers. Many categories of 3rd party drivers could be excluded fully during a selective recovery boot process.
