It isn't nonsense... Think about it. All you said can be applied to Devil Fruits too.
You have to bend them to your will and make them work for you, just like what you said for swords...
But that is the pleb stage. Strong ones carry the DFs to higher levels by Awakening them, when they catch up with body and mind(haki).
And Mihawk told us that will(haki) is what it takes to stop getting carried by the sword and carry the sword instead.
All non-Kokuto users weren't strong enough to bypass weapon's original rank and lift them higher.
Only 3 swordbois are. Maybe "carried" is the wrong word for you but you get what I mean...

2. How does lifting them higher got to do with the Sword is literally bending to their Will already. Enma was bent to Pden Will and couldn't do shit to him. When Zoro first got Sandai that shit was doing random shit like cutting when Zoro didn't want it too
