I'm sure SIG was well aware of the value of a trigger safety, but wanted to avoid using one given how much flak Glock has taken over the years about it. I suspect Ruger had a similar idea that they were going to avoid using a Glock-type trigger safety when they originally released the SR9 with their own trigger safety design using a trigger shoe approach. Unfortunately that backfired as they later were forced to do a recall to retrofit the pistol with a very "Glockish" trigger safety.
I recall, prior to the “voluntary upgrade”, Sig bragging on their website that they could deliver a safe gun, good trigger pull, without the trigger dingus. I remember because once they started having issues that vanished from the website pretty quick. So they knew and made a choice.
As for Ruger, my SR9c and 40c had fantastic “Glock like” triggers, really did it well.
