To be honest I have never thought of it in that light and this is the first time I've ever heard a comment like this. Personally, I wouldn't be concerned about passing this message on because when you dance/balance a sword at no point do you wang it around like a weapon, strike fighting poses or posture in a 'I have a weapon and I am a bad ass sword fighting machine' type of way. As you already acknowledged the point is to show off your dexterity.
