The use-case for herbicides are large agricultural fields (several acres) where a worker can no longer deal with weeds individually. Most herbicides require you to wear PPE. But in the residential market people ignore those instructions. Most of them are also unaware of the existence of safety data sheets, and are also unaware that the product packaging is not required to have every safety instruction for the product. The result: a proliferation of cancer lawsuits against herbicide manufacturers. After use, herbicides still leave the dead plant behind that needs removal. So, in practice, using herbicides for a residential yard is as stupid as declawing a cat.
