I've noticed a lot of learners (eg in YouTube videos) crash because they grab at the handlebars, grabbing the throttle and inadvertently accelerating.

Is there a reason the throttle can't be reversed so that grabbing would reduce throttle and slow the bike?

(FWIW, I'm a fully licensed motorcyclist, don't currently ride.)
