It's simplicity at it's finest. Besides, if I ever have a Toyota unintentional acceleration event, I just put my foot under the pedal and lift it up. Problem solved.
If there were a way to rig up a mechanical linkage to the throttle body on this new engine, I'd do it in a heartbeat. Cables are stupid. There is no pedal feel whatsoever and they can stick/bind/break.
