> They're surfactants so they can interfere with basic processes in the intracellular matrix like cells sticking to each other and forming tissue.
You know what else is a surfactant? Soap.
Literally every surfactant "interferes with basic processes in the intracellular matrix" -- they disrupt lipids (fats). That's how they work. They're not inherently dangerous as a category of chemicals. You slather yourself in them daily.
This discussion is veering into "the dangers of dihydrogen monoxide" territory now. You can make pretty much anything sound scary if you try hard enough.
