The danger of prolonged low interest rates is that many people/firms will take loans, then when interest rates eventually rise, some will be unable to repay those loans, triggering a new wave of bankruptcies, which was how we got into this mess in the first place. It is a very tricky balancing act. Wearing a blindfold.
