I see how that might make sense to lawmakers. It does present itself as a problem. But the fact that it is a symptom of a security issue is the reason it shouldn't be outright banned. I haven't used the thing, but it has looked to me like a pretty snazzy multitool.
It's like banning swiss army knives. I can see why it looks like it makes sense, but it really doesn't.
That's why we went forth and banned everything swiss, army, or knive, altogether
