Yeah, the FSM did seem to keep the four weapons away from people. It was Garmadon and Wu's job to protect them.

I believe the reason they give is the four ninja unlocked their true potential with the four golden weapons and the would have to re-unlock their true potential without the weapons. It sounds kinda wimpy.

Also, I think that anyone can use the elemental blades and they had no connection to the ninja's actual power that the four weapons of Spinjitzu did.
