Bypassing clutch safety switch

Did a search and couldn't find an answer:

I'm old school and totally hate the clutch safety switch (requiring you to push the clutch pedal to start the car) Years ago, I had some small pickup trucks with this switch and I just pulled the switch wires and wired them together and never had any other issues do to that 'fix" When I'm working on the car and need to start the engine, I have to get into the car then press the clutch to start. I'd rather just reach into the car, turn the key and start the engine. (I know the purpose of the switch and why it's there (forced safety) and I always park with the transaxle in neutral so starting in gear isn't an issue.

Has anyone permanently disabled the switch by affixing both wires together without any other issues popping up?

thanks
Larry
