I can are we forgetting about the rest of the blade? This is like putting foam on your bumper in case you hit someone. It's performative and does nothing in reality. Like you said, if they want to kill someone a blunt tip won't stop them, they literally have the rest of the knife. Or I could grab a dozen other dangerous things in the kitchen, line hitting them with a frying pan. Should we make frying pans soft now?
