I go out flying kites with the grandkids far more often than I drill holes in the walls of my house.
their is some loose advice out there if you search for it that recommends not to fly kites near overhead power lines. (The sparks amongst us will already know it’s a bad idea)
there are regulations that prohibit running cables an inch below the surface from a consumer unit to the ceiling (230v) where no sane person would drill a hole but a bit of advice not to mess with the 11,000v overhead lines.
over the top maybe?
I'd rather over the top regulations than one single person's death, one single child growing up without a parent, one family left destitute as the bread-winner is dead.
