The Ford Barn - View Single Post - Off/On Switch between Battery and Starter

So if they're SO important, why didn't pre-solid state cars have them? If your battery to starter cable is routed properly & secured where necessary, & you have a main feed fuse or a circuit breaker, what's the chance of a disastrous short? I feel that a cut off switch is just something else to possibly fail. Bill W.
