The only thing I have heard about the hard Nylabones is the possibility of a broken tooth. I have never had that happen in all of the years and with all of the pups I have had; but bottom line, I will take that risk over a choking and/or obstruction hazard any day. One incident is all it takes.
I don't know if they have changed their formula, but here are some examples I found online:

Nylabone Warning

Product Alerts

Yahoo! Answers - Nylabones & Similar Dog Chew Toys are DANGEROUS!!!?

I'm definitely not saying bully sticks are 100% safe, but I make sure to watch my two as they chew on them and take them away when I feel they are too small. It's a scary world and I think everything has its dangers... But at what point do we decide to bubble wrap our babies to ensure they are never harmed? I let my two be dogs and enjoy their bully sticks, but I make sure they never leave my sight. I think it's all up to the owner.
