I still consider a firing pin block a good idea. Seems weird to me for a more recent design to not include one.

I fully agree. That's why I said they didn't improve the LCP. A cocked hammer SAO handgun without a hammer or firing pin block is no improvement.
My old LCP without one is so unlikely to discharge by dropping it as to be non existant. How much energy can be created by inertia in just that little firing pin with the hammer only being able to travel about a quarter inch if it should break loose.
Maybe if it fell from the second story of a building, grip down, and a solid rod the right diameter was sticking streight up, and perfectly aligned with the hammer that is shrouded by the slide.
But then, maybe if I picked the right numbers on Power Ball, and Megamillions at the same time. About the same chances. No wait, I need to go get some lotto tickets. I think I'll have a much better chance!
