The real danger with pass-by-reference is that when you spill your plate, your neighbor's salt shaker gets emptied too. That's the ultimate side effect at the dinner table.

With pass-by-value, you're only handed a disposable plastic salt shaker. You can shake it, drop it, or throw it away—it won't affect the real salt shaker sitting in the kitchen.
