Is this unsafe to do this?
Would anyone hitch up their breakaway cable like this? I was trying to figure out the logic behind this method, thanks. Moderator edit to re-size picture to forum limit of 640px maximum width.

It's a nice theory that it should attach elsewhere but hitches don't fall off very often and most vehicles, even those with factory tow packages don't have a good alternative location to attach it.
Sure it doesn't happen often, but it does happen and it's a big problem when it does and following this way of thinking why bother having this 'last line of defense' at all if you defeat it's purpose cause you don't take the 5 minutes to find a proper mounting point. The force required to pull the link is trivial, all you require is a small bolt or even a decent sized screw with a clip attached.
