Well that part makes perfect sense. It's an allegory, much like the original Wizard of Oz and Dorothy's silver (not ruby!) slippers: silver represents the wealth of the elite - which is clearly powerful - but also its illusory and transient nature, e.g. bankruptcy, stock market mechanations, or a proletariat uprising. Therefore, it's the most temporary of the weapon classes as well. As I said before, deep.
Alternatively, foes could just be so awestruck at your wastefulness that they're distracted and vulnerable.
