Maybe it's precautionary because they don't know if it was manufacturing fault or maybe they don't have to but it's legal waffle and they're trying to cover their asses if someone (else) possibly snaps one.
If they're offering a free replacement, I'd take it and if they brick the "possibly fatal death pedals of doom" then I'd take it on the chin (or not, as the case may be).
Even a 67kg person standing on a pedal that breaks could veer into oncoming traffic. You don't have to have hippy hero
wattsweight to kill yourself on a bike.

I think part of the return process is connecting the pedals to the app and processing it there. I have excellent dental insurance, but my risk-reward analysis consists of two data points:
-Issue not big enough for them to do / have to do a proper recall with stop-ride notification
-It would see over 1000W about twice a year, and I weight 67kg
