This is a question only the SawStop folks could actually answer with any authority.
That said there might be a way to defeat the sensor when working with special sized blades.
It's hard to imagine doing great bodily harm with only 1/8" of blade exposed though I'm sure some will try.

I thought I needed a gang saw to cut all the frets at once. I took a Belsaw planer, bought small diameter( 3") blades custom ground with spacers and many shims etc and etc. This was only for lapsteels but it was still one of the dumbest things I've ever spent alot of money on. If I needed to cut dozens of the same fret boards I would use a cnc or laser printer.
