But don't we know the danger of full reserve system and moved away from it willingly and knowingly when the gold standard was removed back in 1971?

It is a complex topic as the reason the standard was removed was to allow for governments more latitude in inflating the currency and of course a run on gold due to government overspending. A currency does not need to be backed by anything in order for a bank to not make loans and have debt. Just another model of banking that has the potential to be more stable.
