Um, the risk is like quadrupled from a groomed slope. It depends on what you do, but I know lots of cross country skiers that hike up and ski downhill. Avalanches, exposure, wildlife, what you said etc.
There are really tame routes that ski resorts make, but you’re still driving out there, parking, etc.
What you’re describing sounds more like AT skiing to me? Granted I have gone up to where people were AT skiing before with my cross-country skis, but I have back-country ones and skins.

I suppose the idiot factor plays a lot here.
