I still remember when they were introduced the only people complaining were emergency room doctors who claimed that the talons would puncture their gloves and expose them to body fluids. (and they were correct).
What they are not telling you is that it is very easy to slash through the gloves used in the ER. It happens all the time with bone fragments, the projectile doesn't significantly increase the risk of breaking isolation procedures.
Oh well, just more proof that you can't scream reason.
