Yeah, but I'm always thinking that interviews can only help.
I mean, first there's the people that will get in because of their apps no matter what.
Then there's the masses of closely competitive students, who all seem to feel the same. My interviewer told me that Yale was "composing" student bodies, so that meant that compared to the many other kids similar to me, only one of us, or how many spots are open to kids like me, will get in. I take this to mean that a great interview will help propel you above the other masses and get you in. True, a bad interview might get you into denied pile but most likely you'll have been denied or waitlisted anyways since there's too many kids with similar characteristics to yours.
