Perhaps it is because PG has been studied for over 70 years and no evidence of danger to humans has been found.  One of the most recent studies  (discussed here by Brad Rodu) which involved subjecting dogs and rats to high concentrations of PG in an aerosol exposure found that the results confirmed the long standing categorization of this substance as “generally recognized as safe”.
