It's like if you were to say that Metallica is harmful to speakers. A
ridiculous assertion of course. Though you CAN blow speakers playing
Metallica as long as the power content exceeds what the speakers are
capable of safely handling.

There's a major difference in recorded guitar distortion and the distortion
created by an amp being overdriven beyond it's limits. I'm shocked you
didn't know that already.
