Stock rods don't like big bottom end FI torque. To ensure reliability you'd either need to build the bottom end of the engine or detune the ECU in the lower rpm/high load areas.

Hence it's understandable if a company wouldn't want to simply rush out a smaller pulley and a reflash. You could, and many folks likely do with no issues, but it's not the most prudent approach.
