In military parlance, "relatively harmless" means something different than what it does in the civilian world.
Reminds me of my favourite quotes, from Colonel David Perkins after the US's 'thunder run' into Baghdad: "We have destroyed all of his prepared organic defences, along with his equipment...we destroyed probably in excess of 1000 dismounted infantry"
So yeah 'relatively harmless' in military terms means pretty much it's not _for_sure_ going to kill you.
