See, table saws are dangerous. Famously so. One of, if not the most dangerous tools available to the general public. They spin quickly with lots of torque and pull things in faster than you can react. Pressure can also send loose pieces of wood backwards at high speed. Fast enough to pass through a person sometimes. It's like being hit with an arrow.
Tablesaw accidents can remove fingers and hands instantly, puncture organs.
They can be used safely but they're circumstantial, the worst thing you can do with a table saw is experiment. Once you realise there's a 12-inch razor sharp blade spinning at 3000rpm with up to 5HP you begin to respect how dangerous it could be and want to warn others.
It's intentionally hyperbolic. But you see what I'm saying here?
