A fair point but isn't it interesting that the Sig P6 police pistol used by the Germans much later includes an open loop hammer? If the pistol was dropped on the hammer, the loop would close and alert the armorer of possible damage to the pistol. Apparently the police still had problems. The loop can be seen in the picture below. I've owned four of them and like them.
