I will give you the opposite scenario. Lets say a team is on their own 1 yard line and the defense causes a fumble that goes out the side of the endzone. Should it now not be a safety and instead placed back at the 1 yard line?
There are some different rules when it comes to the endzone versus the field of play. Why should this one scenario be an exception to all of the other rules?

Again, because Mahomes.
I’ve been watching the NFL for 20+ years. Never ever before today have I heard anyone complain about that being a touchback.
