Why Would Anyone

I'm surprised that "isn't really chicken" wasn't yet mentioned

afa - you are aware of the lingere manufacturer with that trade name? Very classy and stupidly expensive stuff - I'd be surprised if Tomtt doesn't have photos of such, but they'd be NSFW

back to your regular programming
 
I make a mean Bearnaise sauce, but I tend to use heat on the eggs so they aren't as raw and puslike as they are for mayo. Hollandaise is no problem for the same reason. Ditto my sabayon.

I've never seen a recipe where these were not cooked. I suspect cooking the egg in making mayo (should work fine) would not make you happy

I've never seen a recipe in which they were cooked.
The heat applied does not cook the egg, it just helps the emulsification along so you need less fat. If it actually cooks the sauce splits and you end up with really greasy scrambled egg. They are nothing more than fancy warm mayo.
