I wondered about it too when I got mine, but he's right, the original rotors went over the lug nuts which have to support the weight of the truck. In our application the bolts support no weight and only see shear stress from the calipers which only have two bolts holding them. Assuming you could put enough force on them the caliper will shear off the mount long before the rotor would shear off its hub.
