I’m not sure why you keep pressing for this: people agreed that enabling
users to configure that (as long as it’s not the default) is a good
idea. There’s no discussion there.
Your reply was to Max saying that this must not be the default, and that
using "safe" as part of the function name is a bad idea.

There is a difference, yes: A browser only opens inline what is deemed
safe with the session-data. PDFs are only opened with pdf.js (more
restricted compared to a pdf reader). Javascript is heavily restricted
(with good reason).
Opening org-files clicked in eww directly with org-mode is like opening
a spreadsheet with active fields inline in the browser, so a rogue
formula can steal the session of your banking login.

Yet there is so such separation between eww and org-mode.
If you want that separation, you have to open the org-file in a second
Emacs process.
If you don’t want that separation, you have to add other precautions.
Best wishes,
Arne
