How does deadlifting hundreds of pounds not mess up someone’s back?

It seems that this exercise goes against the wisdom of “lift with your legs.” Why is that?

As you get stronger at deadlifts you also get a stronger lower back. Also not having the lower back shift and move during the movement generally has no issues. It still does slightly in the end, but not too much for people to get constantly injured. Your bone density also increases. You also still use mostly your legs.
