There's nothing else on a modern bike that's anywhere near as likely to cause significant harm as a rotor.

Bladed spokes are far worse. Handlebars without plugs, shift levers, aero bars with bar end shifters, chainrings!
I rode an event a number of years ago. A rider fell and a following rider rode over him. The following riders big ring went across the back of the fallen riders neck. 8 days later the fallen rider died.
After watching the video of the bike shoe against a really fast spinning brake rotor, I don't believe Doulls show was damaged by a brake rotor. And I don't believe they pose any significant risk to cyclists. I'll be using them as soon as my savings account allows the purchase of bike #13.
