Good question. When I was interested in Buddhism many years ago, I was struck by this fact: after all, getting rid of all attachments is, ultimately, getting rid of life itself! It turns out that a perfect person, from the point of view of Buddhism, is a dead person! Perhaps if I had met a Buddhist theologian at that time, he would have told me that I somehow misunderstood the meaning of all these words, and how exactly they should be understood, and I would have believed all this… But I didn't meet him. And I haven't been interested in Buddhism since 🙂
P.S. But they were right about something – attachment creates suffering 🙂
