He often does what you describe. But he also mixes in exactly what I’ve described. The fact that it’s intermittent and unpredictable is the problem.

Usually it’s not a “big deal”. But if a person happens to be in the wrong place at the wrong time, it will become a bid deal for them.

And again, the screaming IS blood curdling. That alone turns his antics from harmless to very annoying and startling.

Acknowledging the possibility of a problem is common sense for most people, unless they go out of their way to ignore reality.
Just because it hasn't happened yet doesn't mean it can't or won't. And the scream or shout is, apparently, very startling to many. And the picture of conductors baton looks like the one I used to have. Giant bamboo needle. Capable of causing injuries, but not normally thought of as a weapon, like a letter opener.
