Urea is slightly toxic. Why would kidneys filter out something if it was perfectly good?

Anyhow, it seems the Germans asked to err on the side of caution when first learning that the plastic additives had some kind of biological action, and then proceeded to study the matter empirically to see if there truly would be a problem. That seems the wise thing to do.
