Whether you think the mod is dumb or not there is sort of use for such a mod. Toyota trucks come with clutch bypass to use in the event you run out of gas and need to get the car off the road. Brake off, put in first or reverse, and crank until the car gets off the road. Probably burn up the starter, but better than getting hit on the road. If I thought I wanted to keep this long term, I'd put in a bypass switch.
