I think if one posed the question “how, exactly, could educating people kill us all?” you’d get much the same answer.Plausibly it could lead to weapons that kill many people but then many people have had such knowledge for a long time and we are all here.Turns out mass damage requires things beyond just ‘intelligence’.
I know it’s not the point you’re making, but it brings to mind Pol Pot and the horrendous and destructive “the problem here is too much education” thing.
