That's a completely incorrect line of reasoning.

The actual reason is because pistols without explicit manual safeties have other safety features that make up for it (grip safety, trigger safety, firing pin disconnect etc.,) that provide the ability to carry the weapon safely in a way in which you don't need the time and muscle memory training to turn the manual safety off when you're in an adrenaline packed life or death scenario, you can just draw and pull the trigger.

There's a lot of personal preference in whether you consider the other safety features "enough" or whether you also want an explicit manual safety.
