when you release a project into the wild under a permissive license, aren't you essentially washing yourself from any "liability" ?

don't commercial licenses have same/similar wording so what liability are you talking about?

So they do that because they're doing it for free. Otherwise they couldn't be generous with their work--those licenses are about permitting the generous intent.
