Default Thumb safety

HAPPY HOLIDAYS TO ALL

As regards the M&P.

1. I have the safety now but would like to eliminate the right side. Why can't I just cut it off with a Dremel Tool (after removing it from the gun of course)?

2. Why do some people dislike the safety? I have a 9mm without it and it doesn't bother me, but my 45 does have it and I do like it. It can be left in the off position when carrying, but flipped on when in my truck or baggage (not on airline of course), for an added measure of safety. I know I could unload if I wanted to be completely safe but that adds problems too.

BTW I just got my 45 yesterday and absolutely love it. Am selling my beloved Kimber for it with no regrets, but am keeping my S&W 1911 PD. It of course has the thumb safety which I believe most sane people would be hesitant to eliminate.
