If they're not generating enough to backfeed even at peak, and they can detect when the power cuts off and deactivate until it comes back, is there an actual safety/legal issue?

Mostly a code and legality issue. Local regulations just haven't caught up in most places. Also there's no rights for renters for this stuff just about everywhere in the US.
