Post why lean is bad

I have read a great deal of the posts put on this board in hope of learning as much as possible. One thing I have learned is that a lean condition is devastating to an engine, especially if you have boost. Why is this though? It seems to me if you have an insufficient amount of fuel the explosion would just be less intense, so if anything it would be better for your engine. Why is it particularlty bad if you have boost? Also, is it just as bad to run rich?
