I'm surprised and worried that all that holds the springs in place are those little 'Snap Rings'. With the stock handle bars, the fork caps are covered, so if the snap rings fail and the spring comes out, it'll be contained by the handlebar cover. But with clip-on's bars, if the Snap Ring fails, it looks like the fork caps will come right at the rider with a dangerous force. Am I missing something?

You’re overthinking this. The same design has been in existence for decades and still is. If there was even a minute failure rate to it, it would have been discarded.
