There are many components that are bolted to the frame that are not for looks. The front bumper beam and the tow hitch are two that I can think of off hand.
As for design, Shrockworks bolt on wraps the frame on 3 sides with steel, therefore the bolts only carry a portion of the weight of the slider. They are not going anywhere.
There are risks to welding on sliders, such as applying too much heat to an area causing a weak point on the frame.
