What you said makes perfect sense, sarah. My policy is to have a safeword (yellow/red) available when there is bondage. However, no one has ever had to safeword because I build in so many pauses and checks that the safeword ended up being a redundant backup. I've sooner released bonds (or just backed off on intensity) just becuase I detected that the sub needed it (or said so).
When there is no bondage (OTK spanking, for example), the opportunity for red/yellow is still there but is not as critical (if she gets up, that would be a clue she's had enough, and I've always stopped before that has ever happened).
