That is true. But the point of it is to practice so at one point you feel like you are ready enough to try to actually rank up. It's like singing for a talent show. Right now it is basically like, for example, the only way to get better at singing is to actually go to a show, even if you have NO idea how to sing and you will do horribly in front of everyone, it's the only way to actually get better, and once you are a pro, you've already gained a bad enough reputation from everyone. So the only way to prevent that is by naturally being born and catching on quickly that you were only bad like a few times. Kind of the same concept, if you are a total noob at this game, the only way to practice is to actually play for real, and most likely, unless you are somehow naturally skilled, you will lose most of the time and by the time you have a firm grasp on how to play the game, your KD is already really bad and it will be really hard to actually rank up even if you are good. So safe mode would be kind of the same like practicing singing before you are actually ready to perform on stage.
