Quark had a better safety record because he’s not human, and safety is intuitive to most species. Not humans.
Humans are wild hungry barbarian thrill monkeys. Safety protocols on the holodeck were probably at Vulcan insistence after they watched us detonate a warp core inside a sun to see what would happen.
This isn’t just in Star Trek either. In Stargate they find a gate orbiting a black hole, nearly destroy the earth, and then later on when we find a species they don’t like, we give away those coordinates as a prank. Among others. We used that same gate to cause a supernova somewhere else just to see what would happen.
