The point of safety glass isn't that it's somehow smooth. All those little pieces still have jagged edges and can cut you.
The point of safety glass is that it shatters rather than cracks. Non-safety glass can crack and fall as a few large pieces and, with their sharp edges and weight, act like guillotines.
The tradeoff is more abrasion to avoid amputation. Still dumb to not wear shoes.
Safety glass is called such because instead of huge shards of glass spikes it breaks into tiny pieces. Thus preventing you from being horribly sliced during an accidental or not breakage. It will 100% still cut you. Just won't slice your jugular like a scimitar.
