As far as I understand it, the best way to study the effects of a product is once it has left the lab. I don't have any reason to believe that they would release a product that would be deliberately dangerous to the public w/o informing us of the risks. There are tons of products out there where the utility of there use outweighs the risk of injury to an individual.
Well, if you could train them to guard a house...
