So what's the point of a DA trigger if you have to have the safety engaged?

Because thumbing the safety off while drawing is easier than cocking the hammer.
Because it allows a rapid second hammer strike in the event of a misfire.
And, I suppose that if something related to the sear or sear spring broke, it would let you keep using the pistol in a pinch.
Also, if you carry it the way it was intended to be carried (in a full coverage holster with a lanyard attached to prevent dropping the gun), you can carry it with the safety off. In that case, the safety is only used as a decocker.
