Its not so much a matter of a fail, as a matter of Disney not wanting to get sued.

Why can we shoot Skeletons and Animals in game and it be ok, but when we shoot a human enemy then the game is bad? It's the same exact concept, but different targets.

Graphics - Have ya ever noticed that the better the graphics, the more adult-orientated the games get? Thats why games like Animal Crossing are rated E (hence their nice, fluffy graphics,) while games like Mass Effect are rated M. Better graphics tends to provoke realism, violence, adult themes, or all three. Besides, lets face it, its a DISNEY games. They are a "happy smile fun land!" type of company, and hardcore, complex graphics at any rate aren't up their alley.

The better the graphics the better the game. Notice how every game you have mentioned except for Animal Crossing have a great review scores, have great replay value, and sell millions of copies. So your saying I could make a game with amazing graphics and all you do is pet kitties and it's going to be rated M, but if I make a game with horrible graphics with the same elements as GTA IV and it's going to be rated E? A lesson for you is that games are never rated by their graphics.

Censors - Exactly what TheHawke said. Numbers can be used to give away anything from phone numbers, to addresses, to even an age. And we all know what that can lead to.
The scary thing is, people as old as 16, 17 are giving away their Personal Info. to people they don't know. Sure, you can trust the parents and uncensor numbers. But 99% of the time, the kids just ignore the advice their parents and teachers give them. And then what happens, when kids are getting their identities stolen (which IS a major problem with kids on the internet,) and sometimes things even worse? The company that acted as the predator's medium gets the blame. And once again, we find Disney not wanting to get sued.

No matter what Disney does they will never get rid of people giving out Personal Info with Numbers. They would have to ban every word and phrase to get rid of numbers and we all know Disney won't do that.

Pathfinding - It wouldn't be that fair if pirates could just stand behind a fence, or on a ledge, and fire away grenades without getting hurt. It takes away the challenge in the game.

You could ask everyone on POF and ask them if they did an Invincibility glitch somewhere in the game or have used the Grenade leveling up technique in Kingshead and 90% of the time you would get the answer yes.
