1) "this" binding is dangerous - you can easily shoot yourself in the foot with it (it is a "foot-gun").
2) "this" binding can probably be repaired with softly-bound "this".
There's no such thing as "binding foot-guns", the phrase breaks down between "binding" and "foot-". But "'this' binding" and "foot-gun" are both somewhat obscure phrases so this probably was not as clear as it could have been.

Thanks! I hadn't come across the foot-gun meme before (http://web.mit.edu/~axch/www/footshoot.html).
