That inertia break is on almost all pro saws and it’s there for a reason. It may save your butt some day.
I did some looking around this morning, and what I found confirms what you're saying. This is 25-35year old tech.

All that aside, I've still never had a saw stop on its own from kickback or dropping/rolling. The back of my left hand is positioned and ready to be able to hit the brake with the lightest flick of the wrist. Maybe I trip the brake at the same time or before the inertia activation....? I'm also applying forward/downward pressure in the events I'm cutting at or above face-height, so that if it does kickback, I can stop the saw before it hits my face.


It's interesting Husqy has chosen to use this as a selling point/highlight on the resource page. Maybe they ditched the damned brake-sensor?
