Do you drive without a LIDAR? Why, do you like to live dangerously?
If my car had LIDAR I would certainly take reasonable measures to ensure it continued working, yes.
My snow tires didn't come with TPMS sensors.
Because they're not mandated.
Just like LIDAR wasn't mandated on your car when you bought it.
TPMS sensors are in the wheels, not the tires. The only way they would no longer be there is if you had them removed.
