If someone with even more motivation and the means to put those images onto your device via social engineering, exploits or maybe even features and you become the target of a criminal investigation in any jurisdiction you just happen to be at the moment, this makes the algorithm harmful.
Apple can (and will) run a second algorithm server side to filter out further false positives.

Such an attacker could just plant CSAM directly. The hash collision has no bearing on it. If, however, it is hash collision you're worried about, they'd be caught during the manual review.
