Rebase isn’t dangerous in safety terms, the main danger is it can cause frustration when people use it without understanding it first. And as long as people know to not rebase public history, the frustration is usually limited and contained and easily resolved. It might be dangerous if frustration leads to spastic repo nuking, which can happen.
