Audio-only CD players are cheap and dumb. The standard audio CD format
is not complex, and certain parts of the disc that are needed for data
CDs are ignored by audio players. This is where the copy-protected
discs use false data to confuse CDROM drives.

Nobody asked you to bypass the protection, only to sanely error out when
it is found. Refusing to read the disk is ok, but allowing the system
to crash is not.
