It is considered unsafe to have single action notch with spurless hammer. The reason is that this leaves [inexperienced] shooter no safe and easy way to de-cock the gun. For a fee Ruger will replace regular hammer with spurless DAO.
I never really got that. To decock my spurred SP101 I push the face of the hammer down, squeeze the trigger, ease the hammer a little, let up on the trigger, and drop the hammer. I only touch the spur to cock it SA.

That's exactly why I wrote "this leaves [inexperienced] shooter no safe and easy way...". Experienced shooter like yourself would have no problem either way.
