The likelihood of this arm in being a "risk of breaking off the ROBOT and becoming a projectile" is just as likely as any other robot's wheel breaking apart and becoming a projectile.

Yes, the arm comes to an abrupt stop. No, we don't see a risk of anything breaking off and becoming a projectile.

We do need to put some more guards on this thrower and the camera, though.
