No-sense sentence in "Disadvantages" ?

The first sentence in "Disadvantages" is: "Because the force of the fall has to impact upon some part of the body, wrist guards increase the chance of facial or head injuries because the arms cannot support the upper body on impact." This is not referenced, and I deem it wrong. The logic is missing. When the hands have a "shield", why are they not able to support the body when falling? Why should the face/body should be at greater risk of injury then? This should be corrected or deleted. I did not check the rest of the paragraph. Pittigrilli (talk) 00:51, 17 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]
