I see a flaw in their logic:
When a typical splitter hand grenade capriciously is half of its fragmentation into the ground to no value. The other half goes up in the air, spreading in all directions and means unnecessary danger to third parties. Only a few fragments have a chance to give effect to the objective, provided that the soldier is not located behind a small obstacle, since the effect is not complete.
They have it backwards. If the grenade goes off in the air it is spreading more shrapnel in all directions.
A grenade going off on the ground will not cover as large of an area which makes it less effective for taking out the bad guys but also has less fragmentation spreading out in all directions at a high velocity unlike one that toes off in mid air.
This it is deadlier and poses more of a threat to third parties.
It doesn't take a rocket scientist to figure that one out.
