Default ignition kill switch has anyone done this?

Has anyone done an ignition kill switch? Is it even a good idea I heard you should never cut any wires to your ignition. If you have done this what color wire do you cut? any advice will be appreciated thanks.

I to this day still dont understand why peopl dont just put a kill swich on the ignition power line to the ECU. It is a small gauge/low current wire, and the car is not going anywhere with it disabled. This seems to be highly overlooked IMO.

another good idea for one is the neutral safety switch. is easier to do and it is also a low gage low current wire.
