FYI:
The reason many angle grinder manufacturers list their tools as not for cut off wheel use is the guard not being OSHA approved for such use. sometimes a Cut off wheel guard can be purchased separately.
The main reason is cut off wheels are much more likely to bind and shatter.
Cut off wheel guards are much more enclosed , and some even utilize a spring assisted guard that closes around the object being cut.
Double super top secret FYI:
Standard grinding guards have been used for decades with cut off wheels, and just a few years ago this was considered a SAFE and Standard practice per OSHA.
Hard Rock grinding wheels also shatter, with much more energy than a cut off wheel (much heavier weight), though much less frequently. a standard grinding guard is considered appropriate in this use by OSHA.
Arbor hole/ thread size and wheel type (27 vs 1, 27 vs 29) are the main factors in physical compatibility with a grinder.

That's because OSHA looks at data and updates their requirements based on said data.
Just because something was considered safe a few years ago doesn't mean it was safe, it just means the bureaucracy hadn't yet changed it: they're inherently slow.
It used to be "safe" to reuse needles after wiping them off with alcohol, yet I can guarantee no one wants that now.
I have only used with cutoff wheels, well over 100x and no problems so far besides will shutoff when motor pushed too hard.
