According to what I gathered it’s not bad for a system to have a deadlock prevention system, but if an OS has a deadlock prevention system then it may slow down the system as whenever a process or thread will request for a resource then first the system will check if there’s any possibility to have a deadlock situation and also such system might be expensive. So, that’s why most systems ignore deadlock.
