Some kids put literally everything in their mouth so I can see not wanting those in a house with toddlers. It would be nice if we could agree upon what level of danger is acceptable at a society level. There are billions of households on this planet, so if X% of them have some $UNSAFE_FOR_TODDLER_OBJECT, Y% of those end up with a toddler in them, and Z% of those end up ingesting them, you end up with a startling number of injuries to toddlers.
Does that justify banning such objects? Warning labels can help, but there's lots of "oh, I got that in college and threw away to box" or "it was owned by my 19 year old nephew who is staying in our spare bedroom" &c. so even if every parent reads and understands all the warning labels (already a fantasy), Y% will never be zero.
