Are the brake calipers with missing cables possibly there to make the bike appear to be road legal whilst still being a brakeless, foot retentionless, cool guy only death trap?

Things are way different in Japan. People ride crap bikes everywhere (pavement is fine) and cars are very respectful. And fixies/SS are very common.
So while it is very stupid I don't think it's a death trap as you'd be a lot safer riding that in Japan rather than here.
Edit: but yeah it's just not finished I think

It's just a display bike. Pretty sure they wouldn't leave the price tags hanging from the chain either.
