Yes, in the event of a huge rollover etc, arms or legs could come into contact with it, but they may also hit the roof, window, seat and a million other places too that could do just as much damage. I think the risk is pretty small.
Now if there are big down bars, main hoop and a halo..... thats where "head vs bar" starts to come into play......

Thats why I had my rear down bars follow the roof a bit before they turned down. But i also wanted to use a factory headliner but if I was doing a totally custom unit they it would tuck up against the roof and sides, the headliner would cover it.
