Aren't the pegs designed to bend back a bit to prevent that from happening? Feel free to ridicule me, I'm just curious as I haven't quite reached that level yet
Yes but sometimes the little steel heroblob can act as an anchor if there are irregularities on the tarmac. The bare footpeg is much bigger and it is made of aluminum, it wears a lot when it hits the tarmac, so it is safer. Even the bare pegs are too long for the track, there is still enough tyre to lean a bit more.

Ah fair enough, something to be aware of for the future possibly - its always handy to pick up tid-bits like this
