This is how the Happy Hippies distort things. Ueshiba was a hard fightin' man who saw his share of war. What he meant by 'no harm' and what the Happy Hippies think of are two separate things.
I agree. Much about a style is misunderstood. Especially once the founder or best master of it expires.

An interesting thing about aikido against untrained fighters is that many untrained fighters have no ukemi skills and instead of the effortless throw & roll seen in aikido demonstations they end up on their face and sliding across the pavement. So my injury I always figure Ueshiba meant serious injury such as maiming, crippling, or killing. So on that we agree fully...
A really good point seeing techniques without a breakfall is ugly like a full applied wrist locks isnt the nice flowery breakfall out thier hand just faces the wrong way , woman breakfalled wrongly from a throw - well basically didn't. I heard hear ankle snap across the mat

So, you are basically saying that a female student didnt breakfall correctly and snapped her ankle?
