Sounds like an awesome tool for a villain environmentalist who wants to take his/her revenge on mankind. Like they are dressed in a badass hazmat suit and spraying the sap and shooting the fruits out of a double barrel fruit gun.

Maybe over time they become immune to the trees power.
Imagine having earthy or nature-y powers and when someone makes fun of you for it you unleash the glorious manchineel, tree assassin and conqueror of kings
It's no fun. I went to Barbados and I thought it was the sea grapes that I saw everywhere. I took a nibble, very similar taste to a green apple, the burning eventually began about 30 seconds after. The smallest bite caused immense pain. Luckily no blisters bleeding or death.
Person beside me knew all about it. Didn't say a word. My trust died instead.
Wikipedia says:
When ingested, the fruit is reportedly "pleasantly sweet" at first, with a subsequent "strange peppery feeling ..., gradually progress[ing] to a burning, tearing sensation and tightness of the throat"
'Pleasantly sweet' I wonder who wrote that
'Hey do you know how that taste like?'
'Idk dude, let try it out'
...
'It's pleasantly sweet'
'That is nice dude'
'Throat starts to burn'
